ST GERTRUDE'S TRANSPORT SERVICES - LIFTS
TO SUNDAY MASS
One very useful service provided in the parish is
the transport of elderly or infirm parishioners to
Sunday Mass. These parishioners often live alone and
the service plays a vital part in keeping them in
touch with the life of the parish and, indeed, with
their fellow parishioners.
Anyone requiring a lift must be able to enter and
leave a vehicle, perhaps with a little help from the
driver. If you have a folding wheelchair, we may be
able to accommodate you but this needs some notice
and planning.
Our resources are not large and we are always on
the lookout for drivers prepared to help in this really
worthwhile activity.
If you need help, let us know which Mass(es) you
would like to attend. If you could be a volunteer
driver, contact us with your availabilities. In either
case - Contact: Ann Hughes 020 8657 4557
Coffee Mornings
There is a coffee morning every Sunday after the 10am Mass.
Do come along and meet other parishioners and friends.
Getting married?
The diocese requires six months’ notice of marriage. Please
contact Father Martin as soon as possible if you are planning
