There's a second collection at all our Masses this coming weekend to help with the costs we will shortly incur in repairing the defective concrete affecting the church spire and bell tower, as well as the mullions and other parts of the Good Shepherd Church building. The estimated costs for this work exceed £770K so do please be as generous as you can. Thank you so much.

🌻Thank you to our wonderful volunteers! 🌻

As some of our parish activities pause for the summer recess, we want to say a heartfelt thank you to every volunteer who serves, sings, tidies, welcomes, and supports our parish life.

Your kindness and dedication truly embody our mission — Go, Make Disciples.

Whilst some activities stop for the Summer, you can find all our regular Mass times and activities on our website - https://www.stjohnpaulparish.co.uk

Enjoy a restful, joy‑filled summer break.
We look forward to gathering again in September with renewed spirit and gratitude. 💛

Serving the Catholic churches of The Good Shepherd, Nottingham and St. Anthony, Calverton.
