Prayer Tree
Prayers are offered this Sunday for all those who wrote prayers for
those who have died, on our Churches Together Prayer Tree last weekend at the Coalville Picnic in the Park event. It was
great to see so many of you at this event despite the rain. In the pictures below you can see the Prayer Tree with all the different communities prayers to be offered this weekend (see the table below) and the tree now placed in St Wilfrid's with our particular intentions. You still have time to write your own prayers this weekend on the table by St Joseph's statue.

An Alternative Look at the World Cup
Despite the Brazilian Government promising that
no public money will be used to fund the World Cup, more than 90% of the cost will come from public funding, paid by
Brazilian taxpayers. Brazil has around 40 million people living in poverty, and
of these 16 million people are living in extreme poverty. Brazil desperately needs thousands of schools, creches,
hospitals, public transport, and homes for its people. Will you stand by the people of Brazil? Click here.
