St Columba's & St Malachy's Catholic Churches

In order to attend Mass a place has to be booked and we have to keep a record of who attends Mass together with their contact details for 21 days which would be used by “Track and Trace” if required. These details will be taken at the time of booking. Bookings should preferably be made through the website (www.stcolumbascatholicchurch.com) once the system is installed early this week. Those without internet access should ring Fr Michael on 361682 being careful to leave their name and phone number and the Mass they wish to attend in any message. The booking system needs to be reasonably flexible to reflect the different sized groups in which parishioners come to church and so each ticket refers to a space which includes social distance –one ticket will accommodate a single person or a couple; two tickets will accommodate a family group. There is no need to reserve more than two tickets to reserve an appropriate space for your family.

Masses are being celebrated as follows:

Saturday 6.30pm St Malachy’s Capacity of up to 90 people

Sunday 9.00am St Malachy’s Capacity of up to 90 people

Sunday 11.00am St Malachy’s Capacity of up to 90 people

Wednesday 12noon St Columba’s Capacity of up to 24 people

Friday 12noon St Columba’s Capacity of up to 24 people

Don’t forget to reserve your place at your chosen Mass!!

Catholic Care Community Response Service

In response to the impact of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Catholic Care have launched a Community Response Service to support those in our Catholic communities who are sick, self-isolating, have been adversely financially impacted or are finding it difficult to cope.

The service will be available Monday – Friday, 8-6pm
A team of Catholic Care workers (we may expand later to incorporate volunteers) will be available to support parishioners and families in a number of ways:

• A telephone support service. This service will provide a listening ear and a friendly voice for those experiencing isolation in their community.
• A pick up and drop off groceries and pharmacy service.
• A dog walking service

• A hamper delivery service for those experiencing financial hardship.
Please contact us on 07739975001 or 7739975008 or 07739975009 or email janet.kent@catholic-care.org.uk or Jessica.price@catholic-care.org.uk if you would like to access this service or you would like to refer a person in your Parish or school community.
