THE ORDER OF THE GOLDEN RAINDROP 
……….is awarded to the gallant few who braved GALES AND RAIN AND FLOODS AND MUD to struggle through the 5 mile sponsored walk for Mission Funds last Sunday afternoon.  We were out in the very worst of it  and it certainly was memorable and though soaked to the skin for some, it was quite fun in a curious way.  WELL DONE EVERYONE!  Special commendation to Johathan Kane who raised a magnificent £150.00 – well done Jonathan!  All sponsors please give your promised sponsorship as soon as you can.  Thank you very much everyone.

St Walburga’s Catholic Primary School- Foundation Governor

Bishop Crispian, who has absolute discretion in the appointment of Foundation Governors, is seeking applications from committed baptised Catholics who wish to be considered for the above school.  The Governors of a Catholic School work as a team, in close co-operation with the headteacher and all staff. In addition to the legal responsibilities of the Governing Body, the foundation Governors have a responsibility for preserving the religious character of the school, sustaining and developing the school as a Catholic educating community in accordance with Canon (church) law, and the teaching of the Catholic Church, as giving clear witness, as individuals, and as a team, to the Gospel message and to the Church’s teaching.  Appropriate training is available during the period of service (from date of appointment until Aug 31^st 2003.)  Lack of experience in education in a Catholic school should not deter anyone from applying if there is a genuine desire to serve the mission of the church.  Application packs are available from the Parish Office, School Office or Dept for Schools Governance, Park Place Pastoral Centre, Winchester Rd, Wickham PO17 5HA.  Closing date for receipt of application forms is 31/10/01

Our Mission Prayer

Father in Heaven we rely on You in all things, For we are powerless without You. We offer you our Mission. May it be a time of healing and renewal.

May your Light shine upon us all.  May we receive your blessings and know that they come from You.  May we become Your apostles and witness to the world that Your kindness is infinite, Your forgiveness unending, for Your love for us has no bounds.  May we allow You to enter our lives more fully and may we share the joy of knowing You with all around us.  Amen.
