Volunteers

Thank you to all who volunteer their time to the various areas that help our church and services function, including those who keep the church clean, choir, altar servers, collectors, ushers, readers and Eucharistic ministers.

Our teams have grown a little smaller through the years. Many new people have joined our worshipping community. Could you volunteer to help?

Please contact us if you feel you could make a contribution on a rota basis.

Requiescat in Pace
Ar Dheis Dé go raibh a n-anaim
May they rest in peace and rise in glory

Those we love don’t go away,
they walk beside us every day.
Unseen, unheard, but always near.

Jesus, thank you for destroying death so I may live forever!
