Thank you


SUROL's latest Bulletin has been published (you can access their site to see their work HERE).
In it the Grand Priory of Great Britain is especially thanked - so it seemed good to pass that news on to all our members and friends who do so much to raise the funds we send them, via Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith, their Patron.

Below is a little clip of just some of the individuals they help.


A reminder to members and friends that our next 
fundraising event is on Friday 17th February - 
the Burns' Night Supper in Lancashire. 
See post below and contact Fr Simon or the Secretary.

Burns' Night Supper


We are planning to celebrate Burns’ Night again this coming year - for practical reasons, a little after the actual date -
ours will take place on Friday 17th February
starting at 7.30pm. 

This has been an excellent evening over past years with all the traditional Scottish ceremony and traditions associated with the evening - though you don’t need to be Scots to come along!  
Tickets are just £25 per head 
which is terrific value considering all you get.

The event is to raise funds for the Order’s charitable work, so come along and support it whilst having a great evening’s fun.


WHAT YOU WILL EXPERIENCE…

Traditional  Piping in o’ the Haggis.
A Tartan sash for each of the Ladies.
 A cocktail on arrival.
Three-course traditional Burns’ Night Fare consisting of:
Scotch Broth
Haggis wi’ Bashit Neeps & Champit Tatties
Pudding of Clootie Dumpling.
Wine with the meal.

  Whisky for the various toasts
 The address to the Haggis
 The Toast to the Lassies
  The Reply from the Lassies
“Entertainments” in song & verse in keeping with the evening. 
Tickets available from Fr Simon Henry at St Catherine's
or via the Secretary, Chev. Anthony Dickinson. 

Everyone welcome.
