WELCOME BACK WE MISSED YOU!
WITH A SONG IN MY HEART!
It is with great joy that I welcome back our four choirs to both our beautiful parish churches this Sunday! With the return of our choirs on Sunday, September 19th, we return to an experience of a more fulsome expression of our faith within an enhanced liturgy.
This means some changes to our Mass schedule. This schedule is detailed below with changes highlighted in bold.

MORE GOOD NEWS…!
It is great to be able to announce the gradual easing of the covid restrictions in both our parish churches. To begin this process, as of next Sunday September 19th, it will no longer be necessary to book your place at Mass and the Distribution of Holy Communion will be restored to it’s rightful place within the Mass.
We will of course continue to do our best to keep everyone safe with ongoing commitment to face masks, social distancing and hand hygiene.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your continued dedication and commitment to the life of our parish.
Let’s keep each other in prayer, fraternally, Joe McD
