Team 4 are on duty on the weekend of 24/25 May; Team 1 are on duty on the weekend

Will all readers & ministers please endeavour to arrive at least five minutes before Mass
begins and ‘report in’ to the sacristan-on-duty or priest. Thank you.
The sacristans have been finding portions of the Host on the purificators: this is
due to ministers neglecting to follow basic guidelines. Once again, you are
requested (nay, demanded) to use sufficient water to purify the vessels and to
consume all fragments that remain. Thank you – in anticipation!
