REIGNITE YOUNG ADULTS MASS & SOCIALREIGNITE

It takes the form of Mass on the third Sunday of each month in the Cathedral at 5.30 p.m., at which young Catholics will read and provide music, followed by a social in a nearby pub with a guest speaker. 

Here is another chance just like the Lourdes Pilgrimage and World Youth Day in Poland to experience with other young people our faith as fun, engaging and transformative. Come along for great speakers, brilliant testimonies, guest homilists, our young adults music ministry, hanging out with friends and social time

Please spread the word and make sure our young Catholics know that the invitation is for everyone!

Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes

20101216_01_lourdes
The diocese is blessed to have been able to take an official "under-16s" group with the annual pilgrimage to Lourdes for the first time this year. The group were very much part of the wider pilgrimage, taking part in all the liturgies, visits and processions, yet having their own identity as a group. It is part of the long tradition that many young people play a large part in assisting the infirm throughout the pilgrimage and especially at the Grotto to Our Lady. More information on the Diocesan website.
