SUPPORT OF THE CHURCH:
We ask all of the faithful who are able to do so, to continue their regular giving to the parish, which will otherwise lose vital income.
We have set up an account with "Give as You Live" which is a free and easy way that you can make online donations, directly to St John Bosco Parish. The site is secure and has been recommended by the Diocese .
100% of your donation will be received by the church.
