CAFOD Harvest Fast Day


At Mass this weekend we receive our Fast Day envelopes. We deny ourselves something on the Fast Day, Friday, October 3rd. We return the envelopes with what we have save (and perhaps a little more....) when we come to Mass next weekend. Please include the Gift Aid form if you are a taxpayer. More here. Please be generous.

You may be interested to know that CAFOD have published a cookbook called 'Friday Suppers.' It is written for CAFOD by Pauline Curran with a foreword by Delia Smith, and is packed with 40 delicious meat-free recipes. It is ideal for people looking for fresh inspiration for simple and tasty family meals, and for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint by eating less meat. If Delia says it's OK it must be good! Friday abstinence is good for the soul - and the environment. Win win!
