• ARSON ATTACK!!!
  Sadly, last Monday afternoon our beautiful church was subjected to an arson attack. As you can see, damage was done to the screen, the table and the carpet. No doubt it was mindless people but Our Lady protected us and a greater disaster was averted. Vigilance is needed !! May I ask you all to call into church as you walk or drive past or call to the Post Office, visit the graveyard or the Bowling Green. The more people visit, the less chance we have of another attack!
