New Beginnings











Unfortunately, we do not have very good photographs of tonight's meeting as the camera was playing up, so apologies for the blurry photographs.
We had the opportunity to meet two new people tonight: firstly our new diocesan youth worker, David. Some of us had a chance to say hello and have a little chat before we got started.
Mass was celebrated tonight in St Joseph's by our new parish priest, Fr John Wood, so we all trooped across to Church.
After Mass it was back to the hall for a bit of free time to socialise. During this time we unpacked the fabulous new table tennis table, that had arrived during the week. Only to find it was a million piece self assembly job. (Fr William makes his presence felt, even when not here!), this however did not deter us, David along with some of the older group members set to work - and after an SOS call for a screw driver and a visit from Mr A the table soon started to take shape.
Fr John popped in to see us, and was given a big WHP welcome along with a card signed from the group.
This Friday was one of those nights, when nothing goes quite according to plan, so the intended power point presentation on St Therese didn't happen due to a technical hitch. However I am sure that after our visit to Middlesbrough next Friday for the visit of the relics of St Therese, we will all be even more inspired to learn more about her.
We concluded the evening with our closing prayer, after which a small group of us went down to Our Lady of Lourdes, Hessle, to spend some time in adoration before the Blessed Sacrament.
