LATEST UPDATE (24th November 2020)
The latest announcements from the Government are clearly good news in that, under the Tier system to be introduced next week, we will be able to resume the public celebration of mass – albeit under the strict limitations we had previously – whatever Tier we may be put in. The booking system will recommence and mass will start again next Thursday, 3rd December. Until then:
