There is now a newly formed gardening team of volunteers in Divine Mercy who have been hard at work in the beautiful sunshine brightening up the Church grounds. As with all the Church groups they are always looking for more people to help out so if you want to pitch in get in touch with the parish office and they will put you in touch.

Lavender in memory of Hughie O’Connor RIP
The family of Hughie O’ Connor RIP have donated 6 French lavender plants in his memory as he loved his time in Lourdes (France). They have been planted at the side entrance of the Church which is used for daily masses as well as private prayer as well as the weekends. The beautiful fragrance will help passers by experience some peace and calm in a hectic world and we hope they will spare a prayer for Mr. O’Connor and his family.
