After the wonderful Blackburn People's Choir came to Our Lady of Perpetual Succour church on Friday to put on a concert to raise money so we can put on fun events for local children in August, we raised over £300. Then the People's Choir Committee donated £175 to bring the amount raised to over £500.
I am deeply touched and overwhelmed by their kindness.
Thank you and God bless you and all those who have donated.

At the end of the of the beautiful concert given by the Blackburn People's Choir, I was completely surprised by the gift of a remarkable cake to mark the imminent 35th Anniversary of my Ordination to the Priesthood.
I thank Emma for her kind words, and parishioners for their kindness in arranging this.
As those who know me are aware, I am not good at being celebrated, but I was/am incredibly touched.
The cake is stunning, the detail of my glassas amazing, and the representation of Marchioness Poppy really lovely.
Thank you so much and God bless and keep you.
