Farewell Father Bill
Father Bill Saunders, parish priest of Oadby from 1998 to 2007
After being taken ill, Father Bill was taken to Hospital in Nottingham, but the surgical team was unable to help him. He surprised the medical staff when he recovered consciousness and rallied on Thursday, being well enough to receive visitors and chat to them. On Friday, however his condition worsened and he died peacefully on Saturday morning 26th October.
Father Bill was seventy-four years old and had celebrated the golden jubilee of his priestly ordination on the Feast of Ss Peter and Paul, 29th June 2013.
HIs funeral arrangements are as follows: there will be a Vigil Reception with Mass at 7 pm on Tuesday 5th November in the Church of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour, Brooklyn Road, Bulwell and Requiem Mass at 11.15 am on Wednesday 6th November also in Bulwell. His mortal remains will be buried in Highwood Cemetery.

Birthday celebration
After our 10am Mass this Monday parishioners and friends gathered for tea, coffee and cakes to celebrate Paule Morris' birthday. We sheltered from the autumnal rains outside in our parish room and enjoyed our time together reminiscing and sharing stories. Later in the day, Paule's children and grandchildren gathered for their own family celebration.
