Pope Leo has declared Sunday 16th November to be the ninth World Day of the Poor, with the theme of “You are my hope”.

On this day, at 12.30pm the Mercy Group is arranging a simple, but hearty, lunch for the whole parish in the Apostle Room.

There is no charge, but booking is required. To book a place, please email Deacon Robert at robert. von. hawrylak @cliftondiocese.com.

There will be a collection in aid of Borderlands, the charity caring for Asylum Seekers and Refugees.
