On 24 July, Fr Mark McManus celebrated his final Mass at Chesterfield following 12 years as Parish Priest, before his move to his new Parish in Sheffield. After the Mass the parishioners hosted an event in which Fr McManus was presented with 
a farewell gift, a model of HMS 
Victory in a display case. This was his own personal choice. Parish Council Chairman, Frank Berry also presented Fr Mark with a cheque for £1,755. Parishioners generously donated £2,300 in appreciation of Fr McManus’ ministry and dedication.
