DAILY MASS IN SAINT ANNE’S ORATORY :

We will have Daily Mass with a small congregation at 10.00 a.m. in St Anne’s Oratory from Monday 13th July. This will be subject to our meeting all the requirements set down by the Diocese in relation to congregational worship. Father Cargan has decided to delay the opening of the three churches in our parish for weekend Masses, but hopes to have a return to the full schedule by the month of August. We will continue to stream the all Masses on our webcam to facilitate those unable to attend. The churches will be open for private prayer each day.
