Thank you - St Andrew's web.
Hope all’s well with you all.
Many have been asking - just to say the Foodbank is still open, and all food donations can be placed in the house porch. Vision Aid ‘any unwanted spectacles’ container there too.
It’s unfortunate, but so necessary the church being closed, but as Christ says, knock and the door will be opened. With all that’s going on, one of the things it’s done, I think, is made us all slow down. We can’t just rush about as much as we used to. Standing in a long shopping queue for a long time is very much the norm for many at present.
Life for some might have become more hectic with home working and home schooling. If you can, try and catch at least a five minute slot in the day for prayer - it’s good to spend some time each day in conversation with God. He knows what’s in your heart. Talk to him. Have that heart speaking to heart time.
If you get the chance, join in the Pope’s live broadcast of prayer and adoration tomorrow (Friday) 5pm our time - 6pm Rome time. Links below
Take care.
