St Saviour's News = 14 Feb 2021

Next Sunday - Reserve your seat at St Saviour’s mass via Liz on 07718918846.          

Stations of the Cross - this afternoon at 4pm in St Saviour’s.  You are welcome to join us but we’d ask you to remain seated during the procession when Fr Phelim and the ordinands alone will walk around.  This will be recorded for use by individuals during the season of Lent in addition to our weekly masses.                              

Covid Risks Update -Our risk assessment states people must adhere to social distancing and so go straight to their chair and at the end of the service leave in an orderly manner. We know the cold weather makes it difficult yet it is only really outside that catch ups and some fellowship may be possible because of reduced chances of coronavirus spreading.              

Zoom Bingo - Shrove Tuesday 16 February is our first zoom bingo night.  Please email Ross if you’d like to play along ross.pilliner18@stpadarns.ac.uk  Zoom codes are available from Liz.   We hope to play five games and all donations will go to charity.  If anyone would like to make a charitable donation in lieu of prizes our charity this Lent will be to help our neighbours at the Oasis Cafe. PS Make your own pancakes!                 

Ministry Area Open Meeting - The next open meeting on zoom is on Wednesday 3 March at 7pm and will involve members of all three areas of the South Cardiff MA (Splott, Butetown and Grangetown).  This will be another chance to listen in to views and opinions from across the MA as well as setting out likely processes from here on in.  After this it will be MA reps and a smaller action group meeting to discuss the decree setting up the MA as well as the financial arrangements we’d like to put in place.  If you’d like to be part of this please let us know and we’ll send you the link.  Even if you are just curious and want to listen in you’d be more than welcome.                                      

Ash Wednesday and Lent - We will have sprinkling of ashes instead of imposition during the Ash Wednesday mass 17 Feb which will be at 10am in St German’s and 6pm in St Saviour’s.     

Faith QI - Next meets on Ash Wednesday 17 Feb at 7pm via zoom.  The next topic will be ‘Spirituality - lived experiences of faith’.
