GA envelopes labeled to collect from Narthex.

Please do subscribe to this scheme, so that less of your gift be spent in admin cost and more in helping St Mary’s.

Indeed, if you Gift Aid using the ‘one-off’ envelopes in the pews, our secretary needs more time to process more data. If you Gift Aid via the regular scheme, it is quicker for us to process, and thus your money is put to better use.

Help us minimise admin & maximise your giving:

The box sets of GIFT AID envelopes for the new tax year will be available for collection shortly. Anyone who is a tax payer and a regular user of the occasional Gift Aid envelopes (those left on the benches) and would prefer their own set of dated and numbered, Sunday Gift Aid envelopes, should contact Jane Wright in the Shrine Office warrington@fssp.org

Safeguarding Representative: Thank you to Clare Fraser, who agreed to succeed Chris Gehrke as our local Safeguarding Representative. A daily worshipper at St Mary’s, Clare will be part of the Safeguarding Team within the wider parish.

Weekly Family Day: As soon as further DBS checks are completed, our monthly family day will occur weekly. After our usual 12.10pm Mass, there will be a picnic and 2 afternoon classes following a set curriculum. We will end with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament before joining (those who wish) the Junior Choir practice. Info/contact: Alison Kahn penketh.kahns@gmail.com 

Congress: Three more paid-for spaces are available for Shrine parishioners to attend the Eucharistic Congress in September. Please contact urgently the clergy or directly Fr Dave Heywood, P.P.

28 backpacks for St Mary’s Lenten Campaign

As part of our Lenten efforts this year, St Mary’s Shrine supported the Mary’s Meals charity, which provides meals for starving schoolchildren in poor countries.

Thus, 28 packs plus £20 in donations were collected at St Mary’s Shrine.

The bags have already made their way to Scotland to be sorted.

Many thanks for the loving engagement of St Mary’s parishioners in doing this work.

Great Servers’ Weekend

FSSP Servers’ Training a Great Success

See article in The Universe below.

By Józef Łopuszyński

A very successful Altar Servers Training Weekend was held at St Mary’s Shrine Church, Warrington from March 2^nd to March 4th.

The course was attended by people from across the country wishing to learn to serve the Traditional Roman Mass, especially the Low Mass.

The weekend was packed with information as students worked hard practising how to assist the Priest at the Altar during Holy Mass and Benediction.

An added bonus was the meals which were beautifully cooked by Choir Member Kirsty.

One of the younger trainee severs said, “I thought the training I received from the F.S.S.P. at Warrington was first class.  Superior Father de Malleray was very clear on what he wanted the trainee altar servers to do, i.e. what to carry, directions to walk around the altar, etc.. It was very enjoyable and I consistently prayed to St Stephen to make a success of the training.”

“Sancte Stephane, ora pro nobis!”

Men and youg men interested are invited to contact Fr Loewenstein, FSSP (email: padrek@libero.it) to book for a lesson.
