Don’t throw away those used stamps after Christmas.

Peter Derry has been collecting them to help the Redemptorist Missions for over 20 years. Peter is a parishioner of St Edward’s and St Peter’s in Scarborough. Please send your stamps (and postcards pre-1940) to him at: 79 Weaponness Valley Road, Scarborough, North Yorkshire, YO11 2JG, ensuring that envelopes sent have the correct postage on them for their weight.

Please note ordinary 1st and 2nd class stamps no longer required but all commemoratives welcome.

Thank you.

Peter asks readers for their prayers for the repose of the soul of Fr Capitanio, a priest he has been helping for 21 years, who died on 20th September aged 86 years.
