Because a card making workshop in times of COVID is not practical, I’ve decided to donate all proceeds from 40 of my cards to the Ilula Orphan Program Luxembourg (IOP-LUX).  So, if you’ve got a special event coming up – a wedding, a new baby or just want to let someone you love know you’re thinking of them – why not consider a handmade card.  It will make them feel really special and you’ll also be helping educate children out of poverty!  It’s really simple to order, either send a PM to my FB page https://www.facebook.com/CardsalaKate  or send an email to leshfamily@vo.lu, explaining what you want.  I will propose several options and the price and you make the payment to IOP.  You can pick up your card from my home in Kehlen or from the Home from Home shop in Strassen or from St Alphonse.  Thanks in advance for your support of the IOP-LUX.

This year registration for the preparation of children for First Holy Communion 2021 will be completed electronically with no physical meeting with the parents due to Covid restrictions.  Children should have reached their 8th birthday by 1st January 2021 in order to join the programme.

All the information on how to register your child for the programme is available by clicking on the link below for the First Holy Communion page. Registration should be completed with the parish office by 13 November 2020. The first class will take place on line Sunday 29 November 2020.

Any questions should be directed to the parish office in the first instance.
