Public Masses and Services will resume on
Saturday 11th July WelcomeWelcome to the website of the Catholic Parish of Saint John Vianney,
located in Mount Nod, just on the edge of the City of Coventry. WE ARE OPEN FOR PRIVATE PRAYER from Wednesday 24th June - we are looking forward to welcoming you back Watch a short video so you know what to expect when you arrive at church (LINK) HELP US TO STAY OPEN FOR PRIVATE PRAYER From Monday June 15th places of worship across England will be permitted to re-open for individual prayer. In order to keep our church open in this first phase we need to maintain a team of committed volunteers: A team of stewards - the requirement is 3 stewards to be present in church during its opening hours and who will clean the church as it closes. All volunteers should be in good health, currently this excludes those who are deemed vulnerable (over 70 years, and/or with certain pre-existing health conditions, self isolating or shielding). This may change. All socially distancing will be expected and PPE will be provided. Initially we will be looking for the church to be open couple of hours two days of the week. At the moment we will be opening on Sunday and Wednesday shortly after Mass. How long and which days we will open will depend strictly on the assistance we receive. Would you be willing to help? Please get in touch by email (stjohnvianney.covty@rcaob.org.uk) or phone (07443 941 701) and let Johanne know which days of the week and what times you will be available. Thank you for your support and kindness Fr Sebastian |
Following the Prime Minister’s historic announcement on the 23 March strengthening restrictions in an attempt to combat the spread of COVID-19, Catholic Churches are closed to the public for the celebration of Mass at this time.

Make an Act of Spiritual Communion– This can be done whilst you watch a live stream of Mass being offered.
You can make an act of Spiritual Communion by saying the following prayer:
“My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.”
Sacrament of Reconciliation
The Sacrament cannot be celebrated over the telephone or by conference call. A pastoral conversation and reassuring prayer may of course take place by these means. Requests for individual confession are very difficult to meet, given the demands of staying at home, social distancing and church closure. Priests must refuse such requests for these reasons.
An Act of Contrition
My God, I am sorry for my sins with all my heart.
In choosing to do wrong and failing to do good,
I have sinned against you whom I should love above all things.
I firmly intend, with your help, to do penance, to sin no more,
and to avoid whatever leads me to sin.
Our Saviour Jesus Christ suffered and died for us.
In his name, my God, have mercy.
