Update on Covid-19 Restrictions affecting our parishes

Dear Parishioners,

These are certainly unimaginable times but hopefully, with due care, we can keep ourselves, our families, and our communities healthy.  

We have been notified by Archbishop Coleridge that all the public celebrations of the mass and sacraments are suspended until further notice.

Effective March 23^rd noon, all our parish churches will be closed.  The weekly newsletter will not be published.

The parish office will be closed for two weeks for face to face visits however telephone contact can be made during office hours. 

These hours and circumstances will be re-evaluated and are subject to change following the recommendations of Archdiocese and Government bodies.

I will try to get as much information out to you as possible on our parish website. 

Here are a few things that you can do:

1. First and foremost, PRAY.  
2. If you are at home, think about praying as a family, praying the rosary. Praying before meals.  Say a Novena!
3. Read the Gospels.
4. Read the lives of the Saints.
5. Call a friend or neighbour and have a chat. (Keep it positive)
6. Exercise! Have you tried praying while exercising?
7. Send prayer requests to me and I will pray for you. 

Praying for you everyday!

Fr. Nigel Sequeira

‘Come to me, all you who labour and are overburdened, and I will give you rest. Shoulder my yoke and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Yes, my yoke is easy and my burden light.’

Matthew 11:28-30
