“Bishop Marcus’ Pastoral Letter to the Parishes of Halifax.”

In his letter for the weekend of the 25th/26th April Bishop Marucs announced the retirement Fr Bob Owens.  He announced a number of changes necessary from the first weekend in August and opened an extended period of consultation on the future pastoral provision for the town of Halifax.  Amongst the changes starting in August is the combination of the two weekend Masses currently held at St Malachy’s into one Mass at 9.00am on Sunday morning and the change of timing for the weekend Mass at St Bernard’s from 10.00am on Sunday morning to 5.00pm on Saturday evening.
