Let us remember those whose anniversary occur this month SEPTEMBER


Our 09.00 am Sunday Mass will no longer be live streamed. This is due to data protection concerns and the recent developments in AI which make the cloning of voices and images increasingly easy.

Plans are underway to make access to live stream/recorded masses to individuals not able to join our community in person.

Watch this space!



 The next Children's Liturgy at St Edmunds is on Sunday 27th September and then will  be on the first and third Sunday of the  month.

Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary time, Sunday, 27th September 2026


Fr. Andrew writes…

This weekend we have celebrated the inaugural Mass of our new parish of Jesus Prince of Peace, Southeast Hampshire. At about the same time, our Jewish friends and neighbours have been celebrating the feast of Sukkot, or Tabernacles, which has its roots in the Torah (Law) of what we think of as the Old Testament. Leviticus 23:39 43 gives instructions on how to celebrate the feast of Tabernacles: Israelites were commanded to live in booths for seven days, to remind them that God brought them on a journey through the wilderness to the promised Land. I have previously suggested the desert wanderings as an analogy of our journey to becoming one parish, with Father Jeremy or Father James in the role of Moses. Now we find ourselves crossing the Jordan, and I find myself in the role of Joshua, Moses’ successor. Perhaps this weekend’s feast of Tabernacles can serve to remind us of where we have come from, and the journey we have already undertaken together.  To continue reading click here

PRAYER INTENTIONS 

of the Holy Father, Pope Leo, from his worldwide prayer network

SEPTEMBER

For the care of water.

Let us pray for a just and sustainable management of water, a vital resource, so that everyone may have equal access to it.

OCTOBER

 For mental health ministry.

Let us pray that the mental health ministry be established throughout the Church, helping to overcome the stigma and discrimination of persons with mental illnesses.

Please remember in your prayers those of our parish who are sick and those who care for them. 
Father of goodness and love, hear our prayers for the sick members of our community and for all who are in need. Amid mental and physical suffering may they find consolation in your healing presence. Show your mercy as you close wounds, cure illness, make broken bodies whole and free downcast spirits. May these special people find lasting health and deliverance, and so join us in thanking you for all your gifts. We ask this through the Lord Jesus who healed those who believed. Amen.

PRAYER FOR UKRAINE


Loving God, we pray for the people of Ukraine, for all those suffering or afraid, that you will be close to them and protect them. We pray for world leaders, for compassion, strength and wisdom to guide their choices. We pray for the world, that in this moment of crisis, we may reach out in solidarity to our brothers and sisters in need. May we walk in your ways so that peace and justice become a reality for the people of Ukraine and for all the world. Amen.
