St German's News - 6 October 2019

Friends of St German’s - Please join us for our AGM and lunch in the hall after mass. If you’d like to join the ‘friends’ please see Angela.                         

Messy Church - Today at 4pm in St Saviour’s.  Please join us if you can as we celebrate our faith in this season of creation inspired by St Francis.                      

Mass Setting - ‘Simple Mass’ arranged by Malcolm Archer music by John Merbecke. We hope to start learning it later in October.                             

Concerts at St German’s - Over the next few months St German’s has been booked by many groups for concerts, carols or other school gatherings.  There is a list of these events at the back of the church as well as a sign up page for those who are willing to help set up and tidy away.  If everyone signs up for one or two evenings it will make our hosting much more sustainable and avoid a small number of people being overwhelmed. Please help us in this important work of outreach and fundraising.                             

Book Clubs: We meet after mass on Mondays in St German’s (starts on 7 October) to look at Henri Nouwen’s ‘Return of the Prodigal Son’ and after mass on Tuesdays in St Saviour’s (starts on 1 October) for Rupert Shortt’s ‘Does Religion do more harm than good’.      

Faith QI faith discussion group will be topical and will normally take place on Wednesday evenings at 7pm once a month in each church (begins 16th Oct in St German’s). If there's a particular aspect of church life and doctrine that interests you let Fr Phelim know.             

​Confirmation Class - Classes every two weeks after the Thursday evening mass in St Saviour’s. Next meets this coming Thursday at 6:30pm.  Diocesan confirmation will be in the Cathedral with Bishop June on Sunday 1 December in Llandaff Cathedral. If you would like to be confirmed this Autumn please see Fr Phelim.
