The First Sunday in Advent is on 1 December and a new Lectionary will be used. To help you prepare, we'll share a video in which Fr Jamie McMorrin takes you through the readings, explaining some key changes in language to spot while listening at Mass. We'll post the session on Wednesday 27 November on our YouTube channel.

“Do No Harm” is a short documentary which highlights some of the grave concerns around the proposed legislation to legalise assisted dying in the Westminster parliament in the United Kingdom. It gathers together experts from the medical and palliative care profession, alongside prominent politicians, ethics experts and religious leaders, to construct a unified voice of unease. The documentary spotlights key concerns around preserving human dignity and protections for vulnerable groups. It challenges the robustness of tabled safeguards in the UK legislation, by citing the experience of other jurisdictions which quickly eased access and extended provision to self-inflicted death. Is this a moment where humanity crosses a Rubicon and changes the very idea of healthcare, compassion and care? Raise your voice! Contact your MP now: writetothem.com/

It’s the Feast of Saints Joachim and Anne today. They were the parents of Mary and Grandparents of Jesus! They are a crucial part of our CGA story and a reminder of the important role of Grandparents in the family! Happy Feast Day!
