With the changing of the clocks there is a sense of conclusion and the commencement of new seasons. The first part of the Synod in Rome draws to a conclusion and Bishop Richard is now moving to the Diocesan Plan and its implementation. Liturgically, we celebrate All Saints and then the Faithful Departed – All Souls, and begin to draw Year A with the Gospel of St Luke to a conclusion prior to Advent. Not forgetting Flu Injection and Covid Boosters!
