All must dress modestly in church out of reverence for God and of respect for fellow-worshippers. Women are encouraged to wear a veil or mantilla. Tops must cover bodies down to elbows and skirts at least below knees. No shorts, no t-shirts, no leggings. In addition, on Sundays and feasts Sunday best should be worn by all: i.e. suits or jackets and ties for gentlemen, dresses for ladies. Thank you.

We love having young children around in church and we thank parents for inculcating their little ones the respect owed to the House of God, and to secure recollection for fellow-worshippers. Parents are welcome to give exuberant children a break in the Narthex or outdoors if needed, especially during the Canon of the Mass and homily.

To receive Holy Communion: one must be a Catholic, in the state of grace, one-hour fasting at least. In the traditional liturgy, Holy Communion is received kneeling (unless unable to) and always on the tongue. Thank you in advance. Kindly switch OFF your mobile phone before you enter the church.

Safeguarding: If you have concerns about children or vulnerable adults, please contact the Archdiocesan Safeguarding Department: m.robson@rcaol.org.uk or 0151 522 1013, or speak with Clare Fraser, St Mary’s Safeguarding Officer. Thank you for your awareness.

Sports Day at St Mary’s

Wednesday 22nd June (weather allowing)

Meet in: Victoria Park, Knutsford Rd, WA4 1DQ, straight after Mass.

Directions: Upon entering via the main entrance, park on the right. Continue down the footpath, with the athletics stadium to the left and the play area on your right. There are rugby fields on your left. We meet on the patch of land opposite them (on your right- look for the bunting). Bring your own picnic and camping chairs/rugs.

Sports start at 2pm. We hope to finish before 4pm, though it depends a little on numbers.

Entrance fee= £2 politely requested towards costs.

All ages welcome, from tiny to tall! Bring grandparents and friends too, but please let me know the names and ages of children who will be entering so we can write some certificates in advance! 

The helpful hands of older siblings would be very much appreciated for identifying winners, writing certificates, staffing the start/finish lines, and generally keeping things running smoothly. If you would like to volunteer your older children for this, please do put them in touch! If anyone is able and willing to take responsibility for first aid, that would be great, too; please contact Alison Kahn (07840 072 641 or penketh.kahns@gmail.com)

The park is a public space, and parents are responsible for their children at all times– please keep a close eye on them!

Pray for: Ray Cilia, James H., Tim Wright, Michael Leacy, Wendy Moss, Bill Conder, Greta Doyle, Dorothea Wallace, Deryck Sankey; M. Hawley; Theresa Reynard; Hilda Creagan.
