The Woodcote Mass at 11.30 am on Sunday 12th January will be held at the Oratory Prep school in Goring Heath. This is because South Stoke road will be closed for the 10k run in Woodcote.
Father Jacob Our dear friend Fr Jacob died early in the morning of Saturday November 30th. He has been a wonderful friend to this parish (and its three most recent parish priests) for 30 years, has given so much, and he has loved being part of the parish too. We thank God for his long ministry, not just in this place, and for all that he brought into our lives. May he know the forgiveness of his sins, the rest and light of the Father’s house and may he hear the Gospel words, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant." May he rest in peace.
