There are many individuals who respond in quiet and unassuming ways to Jesus' commandment to love God and to love and serve others. Peter Jones who has been sacristan for the Cathedral in recent years was one such individual. Peter died on Monday 19th November 2012. His funeral service is on Thursday at the 12.15 mass. As it wasn't possible to include this information in the bulletin please pass on these details.
Below we see Peter in the sacristy preparing before mass on the Feast of Pentecost, when Bishop Michael Campbell was visiting to confirm young people in the parish.
Peter will no doubt be remembered for many things, and by many individuals - not least the altar servers, who will have seen him as a familiar face in the sacristy and the children's liturgy team who will miss him popping his head round the door to say with a smile "they're saying the Creed", which was a signal that they needed to finish their liturgy.
Peter's example of service is one many of us have benefited from - we remember him and his family in our prayers at this time.
Eternal Rest, grant to him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him, may he rest in peace Amen
