The Relics of St Therese

As part of the visit of St Therese’s relics to our cathedral in Nottingham, the Youth Service led an All Night Vigil. Starting at 11.00 on Monday 5th October and finishing the next morning with Mass at 6.30, it was split into three parts, each focussing on a different aspect of St Therese’s spirituality.

After a wonderful Christmas break we arrived back at The Briars to find LOTS of snow! We had to leave again pretty much straight away to go to Team Conference 2010 which was being held at the Hayes conference centre. It was great to meet youth workers from across the country and we all enjoyed having double beds and en suites!! When we arrived back we started planning and preparing our work for the year ahead and even found time to rearrange the desks in the office. So far we’ve had the pleasure of visiting CTU to start preparing our performance of Born for This and we’ve been to Blessed Robert Sutton to work with the year 9s and 6th formers. So far a great start to the year so I look forward to seeing you all soon!
