Today is Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. As we prepare for Easter it is traditional for christians to give up some pleasure for the 40 days of this season.

This year our committment as a chaplaincy is give up, or rather “get rid of” Fr Marcus. We hope that you will join us!

To be clear, there is no plan to replace our popular senior chaplain. Instead, between us, we want to lose the quivalent of Fr Marcus’ current weight. 20 of us have signed up to join Marcus in the campaign. You can help the chaplaincy, and encourage this team either bu sponsoring us, or by joining us.

There are details in all our churches, or you can email your committment to marcusronchetti@yahoo.co.uk.
