Dear Friends ,

As we are all well aware of the sad news of the passing away of our dear Holy Father, it’s fitting to pay him our respects and offer prayers for his journey home to our Father in Heaven .

With this in mind we are offering a requiem mass on April 25th Friday at 7.30 pm in Our Lady of Good Counsel Church, Wickford. All are welcome to join to thank the Lord for his heroic leadership and pray for his repose.

in addition, to facilitate our participation in the Funeral Mass at the Vatican on Saturday morning at 9 am online or on television, we have cancelled the 9 am Mass here in our church. 

The parish bake off is also postponed to a later date.

United in prayers and grief,

Fr. Britto Belevendran 

Pope Francis: friend of the marginalised, refugees and migrants, defender of  God’s good creation, who took forward the precious legacy of Vatican II, and who fostered fraternity with all people. We cherish his example and continue his work.
