Centenary: Change of Date: 26th September
Due to the fact that the Pope’s visit will coincide with the date we had planned for the 100th anniversary celebrations of St Edward’s, the date of the celebration has been shifted to Sunday 26th September (not the 19th). Sorry for any inconvenience. At present we are planning a big hog roast afternoon after the 11:00am Mass, with the superior of the French order that built our church (the FMIs, Fr Jeanneau’s order) coming as the guest of honour.
