News sheet – 2nd Sunday after Epiphany

20th January 2019

ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE MASS
Please note that in this form of the Mass, the Church asks us to receive Holy Communion on the tongue and – if physically able – kneeling. Confessions are available before and after Mass. Refreshments are available in the church hall after Mass – please come and join us, especially if this is your first visit to Christ the King.

STANDING ORDERS
All but £50 of our Latin Mass collection money goes to support Christ the King Parish. If you would like to help to ensure the continuing presence of the FSSP at Bedford, please consider setting up a standing order to them. These need to be set up by you through your bank: account name: FSSP England (Reading); sort code 30-93-04; account number 02027330. Gift Aid forms are also available by request. Thank you.

PARKING
To ease congestion in the car park, additional spaces have been made available on the strip of lawn beside the Presbytery at the back of the Church. Please avail of these spaces.

MUSIC CORNER FOR NEXT SUNDAY (27th JANUARY)
Next Sunday, we continue singing Missa VIII, ‘de Angelis’, for the Ordinary. I refer those who are musically inclined to visit this link – http://bit.ly/Missa-de-Angelis – to find a readable and comprehensive history and analysis by Amédée Gastoué (1873–1943), French musicologist, composer, and professor of Gregorian chant at the Schola Cantorum of Paris. Matthew Schellhorn – Director of Music

EPIPHANY WATER
For those who wish to take some home, this year’s Epiphany water will be available at the back of the church for the next two Sundays (27th January & 3rd February). Please bring your own empty bottles.

PARISH QUIZ NIGHT 2019
Last chance to book for our Quiz Night with Fish and Chip Supper on Friday 25th January at 7.30 pm. Tickets are available at £7.50 per person; please see Barbara. Other options are available for non-fish eaters.
