THY KINGDOM COME is a global prayer movement which the Archbishop of Canterbury invites people around the world to join. The wave of prayer runs for 11 days between the Christian festivals of Ascension and Pentecost May 13 - 23. We are asked to pray in whatever way we want and with whoever we want for others to come to know Jesus Christ. Further details are at on the website: www.thykingdomcome.global/  

HELP NEEDED – St Augustine’s Tots Group We are looking ahead to re-starting this group when restrictions allow. We need some volunteers who could help out once a week (Thursday morning) on a rota basis, for example getting equipment ready, making tea, helping with acitivities. Volunteers will need to undergo a DBS check (free), hence the need to start things rolling. If you can help, please contact Fr Mark 029 20709897.
