Reader’s rota for weekday Masses

Posted on Jul 5, 2026 by St Simon Stock Parish Office

We are looking to make a reader’s rota for weekday Masses so that this ministry does not fall on the shoulders of just a few parishioners. Give your name to Fr. Jose if you would like to offer to read during the week.

A Message From Fr. Jose – 28th June

Dear family members and friends, Jesus gives a very strengthening advice to the disciples saying not to fear anyone except the one who can kill the body and soul. As His children we are always under the surveillance of the Father and are more important than any other being. We should understand our value as children of God and live accordingly without yielding to any evil.
