It has not been an easy year in many ways and I am sure most of us have faced difficulties coping with restrictions and regulations.

Covid 19 has affected all of us in some way as we try to adjust our behaviour in a way which will keep ourselves and others safe. Do we remember to wear our masks or sanitise our hands or keep a metre distance from our neighbours? So many little habits have to be altered. For a time we could not enjoy a cup of tea after Mass with our fellow parishioners. Thankfully that regulation no longer applies and we can now socialise once more.

Some regulations are still in place for example face masks must be worn and social distances must still be observed. Let us pray that we continue to enjoy some more freedom and that we learn to live comfortably with the virus while still observing the restrictions which are necessary.

Kind regards    Jean Douglas

Prayer at Night

We have started online Prayer at night. This will be on Zoom each night until Easter, 17 April 2022. The prayer will start at 9.15pm each evening and last for less than 15 minutes.

This is an initiative of our two parishes, St John´s and St Mary Magdalene´s, however because it is online it is also accessible for people wherever they are - and all are very welcome. For ease, the Zoom link will be the same each evening:
