SERVICE OF ANOINTING AND HEALING will be held on 10th July at 2:30 pm at St. Anne’s. The idea came from our recent Synodal discussions and we are inviting the whole parish to celebrate our coming out of all the fears, strains, and stresses of the last two years. Everyone is invited, especially the housebound, vulnerable and those feeling the need for healing. There will be tea and coffee afterwards in the Centre. Our thanks to Iris Thomson on behalf of the Visiting Group, and John Cassidy on behalf of the Eucharistic Ministers for co-ordinating it. Please take an invitation today for yourself or anyone you know who might be interested.

HOSTING UKRAINIAN REFUGEES
We have filled in our ‘RESET Homes for Ukraine’ forms and are now waiting for them to match us to families to host in both our presbyteries. We shall need parishioners to welcome and guide the refugees when they arrive, to help with schools, doctors, job centres, benefits, shopping, language etc. I have asked Paul and Yvonne Ripley to do this in Buxton and Marie Lawton in Chapel. Please contact them, or me, if you are interested in helping.

CALLING FOUNDATION GOVERNORS this is a virtual information session about being a foundation governor in one of our Catholic schools. It takes place on WEDS 22ND JUNE, 7:00 8:30 pm and will be led by the Diocesan Education team. Currently, St Anne’s Primary School needs another foundation governor and if you’re interested please contact me. To attend this session, email: julie.sweeney@nottingham-des.org.uk
Our thanks to Lorraine Gavin, Marion McCabe and Clare Bearman who are currently our foundation governors at St. Anne's School and Nicki Barnes and Lorraine Maddocks, who are our foundation governors at St. Thomas More school.

CHAPEL NEWS
Friendship group at Chapel this Tuesday 2:00 - 3.30 pm. All welcome to enjoy a cuppa, chat, play games, etc. New rotas are now available for readers and welcomers. Please pick up a copy from the back of the church.

WELCOME TO ANGELA GILLESPIE who will be speaking to us this weekend about the SYNODAL WAY Pope Francis wants us to walk together. This is a worldwide Catholic initiative over three years where views from those inside and outside the church will be finally considered at a Synod in Rome in October 2023. Please take the time to complete a questionnaire yourself and share one with someone you know who no longer comes to mass for whatever reason. Please return them by 4th July. The Parish Pastoral Councils will read them and share a summary with everyone. Parents and staff from St. Anne and St. Thomas More schools will also be given the questionnaire.

BISHOP PATRICK has invited the chairs and vice-chairs of our PPCs and chairs of parish finance groups to a follow-up meeting with the diocesan Vicars General at Matlock on 23rd June at 7:00 pm.

Saint Anne’s children’s liturgy group now meets every Sunday at 10:00 am mass and it’s going really well. Our thanks to Kerry and Rachel Taylor, who have recently joined the team. We could benefit from two or three more volunteers to share the leadership. Please contact Marion Mc Cabe or me, or email stanneschildren@outlook.com if you can help.

Ukrainian Father's day today.
Welcome to all those Ukrainians who are joining us for mass this weekend. We especially want to assure you that your husbands, fathers, sons and partners are particularly in our prayers this weekend as they bravely defend your country. We pray they will stay safe and return to their families.

Next weekend Father Jim O’Hanlon, who is now retired in Alfreton, will be leading Mass as I will be away celebrating the wedding of my niece Caragh.

OUR THANKS to Viv and Derek Robinson, who have recently renewed the tubs outside Saint Anne's. They look lovely!

The SUNDAY CLUB restarted Sunday 15 May to fantastic entertainment from the Mad Hatters Music Junior Choir. However, because the Community Centre's Main Hall is already fully booked on Sundays until August, the SUNDAY CLUB is taking a Summer Break. It will restart in the Autumn on a date to be announced.

THE ST. VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY helps people suffering from food and fuel poverty, helps to combat loneliness and isolation, empowers individuals suffering from homelessness, supports refugees and asylum seekers and provides practical support for thousands of other issues. They are always seeking to improve and be relevant, both in the life of the Church today and in wider society. They continually look at what further help can be given by their membership and their activities are expanding in range and scope. To support this, they offer an array of opportunities, including End of Life Companionship training in partnership with the Centre for the Art of Dying Well at St. Mary’s University, Twickenham, which equips people to support individuals close to death, and their families.
