OUR LADY OF PITY CATHOLIC CHURCH
The Catholic Parish of
Swaffham and Watton
Readers
Readers make an important contribution to parish mission. The Church invites new people to come forward, in consultation with our parish priest, to offer themselves for this service in the life of our Church.
In addition to those people who already generously read the Scriptures at our Sunday Mass it would be wonderful to increase our number of confident readers able to proclaim the Word of God at each Daily Mass.
If you feel inspired to share your love of ‘God’s Word’ please speak to Fr Mark.
