On Wednesday 11th November at 5.30pm there will be a sung Mass in our church for the souls of departed Fathers and Brothers of the Congregation of the Oratory. All are most warmly invited to attend this Mass which follows the traditional practice of the Oratory (and that of many religious Orders, Congregations and priestly societies) to celebrate Mass for departed members in the month of November.
