The parish of Olton Friary says thanks to Fr Wifred
3 June - Parish priest for five years in the parish of Olton Friary, Fr. Wilfred left his new parish of Clifton (Nottingham) for an afternoon to come over to Olton and meet the parishioners who expressed their gratitude for the service he had done.
After the evening mass of the solemnity of Corpus Christi, presided by Fr. Wilfried, Fr. Austin, on behalf of all the parishioners gathered in the parish hall, underlined the precious work that with fidelity and passion Fr Wilfred has done in these five years. For his part, Fr. Wilfred responded by underlying the most significant events that enriched his priestly ministry. He concluded with the traditional "good bye" reminding us the meaning of this greeting: "God be with you" And all answered: and also with you, dear Fr. Wilfred! And this is also the wish of all of us for the ministry that he has just begun in his new parish in Clifton, where he will soon be joined by two other confreres. The exchange of greetings ended with the traditional farewell party.
