This month I’d like to use this space to draw your attention to a few practical things you may find helpful.

Firstly, it is worth noting that not all subscriptions renew automatically: if you would like to check whether yours does, or if you would like the Catholic Herald to put that in place using the card details you have provided, you can get in touch with them by email (or by leaving a phone message). If you are not on automatic renewal, please be aware that your renewal due date is printed on the outside of your Magnificat parcel as it comes close. The next time you are about to cast aside the wrapping to get to the goodies within, take a look! Issues are sent in pairs every other month on or after the 17th.

If you are in the virtual world you can stay in touch with any news and updates more effectively if you sign up to our email list when you renew online or by emailing magnificat@catholicherald.co.uk. You can also find us on Facebook under “Magnificat, British Edition”.

Yours in the friendship of Christ,
