Anyone experiencing difficulties with the Parish Webcam should contact

“Stay here and keep watch with
me”. Please remain with Christ
and as a community of faith until
the final blessing.
When we eat this Bread
and drink this Cup
we proclaim your Death,
O Lord, until you come again.
I would ask that children do not
play with electronic games or
mobile phones when in this sacred space out of respect to God
and I would also ask that food,
especially chewing gum, is not
consumed by children, including
in the crying chapel.
