A joint liturgy, with Christians from the Presbyterian
congregation in Corby, will take place in Our Lady of
Walsingham Church on Sat., 9th November at 2:00pm.

Sunday Mass count will take place this weekend.

The Dedication of a Church: We are asked by the
Church to commemorate the anniversary of the day
on which the Church was dedicated. This can happen
in several different ways and for us it will take place on
the weekend of 26th/27th October in both parishes.

Attached to this newsletter are petition slips that
we hope you will return and place in a petitions box on
or before 27th October as a prayerful way of marking
the anniversary of the dedication of each Church. You
could use the petition slips to pray in thanksgiving for
the clergy and religious who have served the parishes,
for deceased parishioners, hopes for the future, etc.

All Saints Day (1st November) is a Holy Day of
Obligation and therefore every Catholic is obligated to
attend Mass on that day. Holy Mass will be offered on:
• Thursday, 31st October in Our Lady of Walsingham
Church at 6:30pm. The Rosary will be at 6:00pm.
• Friday, 1st November in St John Ogilvie Church at
9:00am. The Sacrament of Confession and the
Holy Rosary will be offered after Mass.
NB: On All Saints Day the Friday rule from abstaining
from eating meat is lifted.

→ Refreshments will be available after the

10:00am Mass on Sunday, 20th October: all welcome!
