Today we celebrate the Feast of All Saints - those Saints we are named after, take as our Confirmation name from, those who are patrons of our Church, or our hobbies and interests. Today we celebrate and remember those saints known and unknown. The day was chosen by Pope Gregory III in 731-741 when he consecrated a chapel in the Basilica of St Peter to all the saints. We remember the saints when we say the Creed 'I believe ... the Holy Catholic Church and Communion of Saints.
Today one of our new servers helped Fr Stewart during Mass. Here he is clearing away after Mass, learning about some of the preparation and clearing away that is part of the role of server.
