Music
Looking to the future, is there anyone who has
keyboard (piano/organ) skills would be
interested in helping with music in the liturgy
especially on Sundays? Perhaps also we could
think about establishing a choir so that we
could begin singing other parts of the Mass,
such as the Responsorial Psalm, Gloria, and
plan some extra music for Holy Week

From Paul to the Benedictines:
Greetings to you all and many thanks for your prayers and good wishes.
Well, the week has flown by, marked mainly by my daily visits to the local surgery
for my wound dressing (the healing of which is progressing nicely) and enjoyment
of the occasional wonder of slurries of snowfall - nice to watch from behind glass,
more problematic if you have to negotiate it on foot or in the car! I do manage to
do a bit of driving - to the surgery or the shops occasionally. I even made a trip to
Birmingham earlier in the week. A bit exhausting, but an indication of progress!
I have a bit of a habit of wondering in the corridors in the late evening. On several
occasions, I have caused night staff here to jump out of their skin if I came out of
the darkness or came unexpectedly around a corner. I feel as though I should carry a
little bell like the lepers in Israel in Jesus' time. My effect on them is a bit
disconcerting - to me as to them! All other residents are usually tucked up by then,
so the staff forget that I might be on the loose!
I pray for you all. Looking forward to being back at St Benedict's probably in a
couple of weeks.
God bless,
Fr Paul.
Unused Rosaries: Do you have unused rosaries tucked away in the
cupboard or drawer, we are collecting rosaries to send out to various
missions around the world, this appeal is being made by The Catenians
who have so far sent out 135,000 rosaries. It would be good if we could
give this initiative our support, spare rosaries can be given to Fr. Paul or
Brian Ingram.
