Church
of the Most
....Sacred Heart
73 Pembroke Road, Ruislip, HA4 8NN
......Tel: 01895 632739
Fr. Michael writes:-As
the disciples of Jesus we gather at Mass in his name. We are
doing what he asked his apostles to do : to wait in prayer for
the coming of the Holy Spirit. Without the Spirit the apostles
were like a sailing boat without the wind. If they needed the
Holy Spirit, how much more do we need him? In these days leading
to Pentecost we should all pray that the Father in his goodness
and love for us, will fill us with the Spirit who alone can
teach us to think and do what is right.

Thank you
May I thank you all for a wonderful evening last Friday
for my Silver Jubilee. I have received many cards; gifts
and presents from so many of you. Thank you for the
collection you made for me and the cheque of £
2200.00. Thank you for the huge turn out at the Mass;
to the Social Committee for the food; the U.C.M.; the
Bec Club for providing the wine; the altar servers;
folk group; Adrian and the choir; the flower ladies;
sacristans and cleaners. You have made me feel terribly
humble by so many words of support and congratulations.
May I say again – THANK YOU.
