Cemetery Committee–Important Notice

Please help keep our Parish Cemetery clean and tidy by taking home any withered flowers and wreaths, instead of leaving them by the wall at the entrance from the cemetery into the Church grounds. Remembering our beloved dead is important, and so too is caring for this sacred space. All old flowers, wreaths, pots and other waste should be taken home for proper disposal, as there is no bin collection service available in the cemetery. Thank you for your co-operation.
