It is with regret that we announce the suspension of all our public Masses and services. The church is now closed until further notice.
​Please read the following information which is very important.

Sunday and Weekday Masses   

• The obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days is suspended until further notice.
• Mass will be celebrated privately each day at the following times: Sunday - 9.30am and 11am,  Monday to Saturday - 9.30am. 
• The celebration of Mass will be live streamed each day on our YouTube channel. 
• Whilst you may not be physically present, please join us in the offering of daily Mass and in making spiritual communion.

Private Prayer

• As of March 24th all Catholic churches are closed until further notice in order to tackle the spread of the virus.
• We would like to encourage you to create a sacred space in your home and to use that as a prayer focus for yourselves and your families.

Funerals, baptisms and weddings

• Sadly, no funerals, baptisms or weddings will be celebrated in church until further notice. 
• Fr Sebastian will support the families of the bereaved and will preside over the ceremonies of internment and committal at cemetery and crematorium.  A memorial Mass will be celebrated for the deceased at a later date when everybody is able to attend.

Sacramental Life

Finally…

• Fr Sebastian and Fr Emmanuel reassure you of their prayerful support for you all at this difficult time. Please take care of yourselves and those around you. Please do your best to assist those in need at this time, remembering of course to ensure that you are safe and well to do so.
