This months's Parish Priest's News
May 2026
My dear friends,
This month begins with me being the only full time stipendiary priest in the Wagner Group. Together with Fr. Andrew and Fr. Robert we are offering as regular a programme here and also supporting our neighbouring friends as possible. We are all publishing each others regular worship patterns in an attempt to ensure a Mass is available within the group seven days a week. It is probably best to consult websites for any last minute changes.
Ascension Day falls on May 14th and is a Holy Day of Obligation. The Principal Celebration that day is with the Wagner Group at s Michael’s at 7pm and I hope we shall be well represented. There will be a said Mass here at 12 noon for those unable to make the evening: if it is fine and the School Mass is celebrated outside at 1.30pm that is also open to you.
Arrangements are well underway for the Wagner Group Supper on the Feast of Pentecost. Please see the Sunday Bulletin and listen to the notices about the time as I have yet to speak with Fr. Bill about the evening liturgy.
In lieu of publishing a year Diary please note that on August 16th, the transferred date for the Solemnity of the Assumption, we shall be holding a lunch after the Parish Mass.
On a final note please make sure your Walsingham Booking Forms have been returned as the earlier we submit the requests the more likely they will all be met. On this subject we are all being registered for half-board (Breakfast and Dinner) as there are so many opportunities for lunch variants.
With my love and prayers,
Fr. Trevor
