The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.  Jesus appointed us as stewards over human goods and Divine graces, to use, not to abuse them. Help us to go out into the world, refreshed by your Spirit, to do what you have called us to do in Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.

Staying Safe – Covid Roadmap Step 4 

On 19 July social distancing and contact limits end. Our Archdiocese decrees face coverings must continue to be worn in services, so please continue wearing face masks in church and the parish centre. Contact-tracing rules remain in place, so still book places for Sunday Masses and give a contact number, and respect others’ need for social distancing. 
 

Parishioners wearing a mask during Mass may sing if they wish (hymn books not available yet), but if you are not wearing a mask you must not sing. The choir may be able to sing together in church from September🙏. Communion to your outstretched hand will continue after the Dismissal. 

Please graciously continue observing the stewards’ instructions, which are for everyone’s safety. Your co-operation has been wonderful throughout the fast-changing and sometimes confusing regulations, thank you! 

In faith and safekeeping, your Parish Vision Team: Steve Bousfield, Andrew Curtis, Monica Gannon, Chris Hawkhead, Anne Pickup, Valerie Stroud.
