Mufti Day this Friday

Don't forget that this Friday (26 February) is a Gold or Fold Mufti Day.  This is a diocesan-wide initiative to raise funds for the building of a learning centre in the Philippines, where an earthquake caused widespread destruction.  This centre will be built by our World Youth Day pilgrims when they visit en route to WYD in Krakow, Poland in July.  Thank you for your support.
