Thank you to parents who attended the registration meeting on 6th February and who have registered their daughter or son for Confirmation. The meeting for parents is an essential part of our Preparation Course and so attendance is mandatory. There is a meeting for parents who did not attend the last meeting this Monday, 23rd February at 19:00 in the parish meeting room (parking/garden, St Alphonse). Simply filling in the application form is not enough!

The first class, for registered candidates only, takes place this Wednesday 25th February, at 19:00 in the parish meeting room.

Next Sunday 1st March our Confirmation candidates will be presented at the 11:15 Mass.

Thank you,

Fr Ed

NB Correction — next Sunday is 1st March, not date previously stated!

There is a concert-présentation of a new CD this Thursday evening at 20:00 in the Salle Robert Krieps. Lisa Zasman (of our English-speaking parish) is a member of the orchestra, writes,

‘It’s going to be a special concert indeed, this Luxembourgish women composer just being re-discovered, after a good part of her work had been forgotten in a box in some attic for many, many years and retrieved by chance not so long ago. It’s a few of these retrieved pieces which we are going to play, they are really very nice, style “belle époque”.

and on our noticeboard in church.
