CORONOVIRUS RESTRICTIONS

Following the national guidance of the Catholic Church in England and Wales; there will be no public celebration of mass in this church until further notice,.

Sadly the latest restrictions will also prevent us from having any opportunity for private prayer and Exposition of the Blessed sacrament as originally planned.

On Sundays we are hoping to have a video recording of the Mass available on YouTube although this may not be possible so please check this website for the latest information. To access last Sunday’s Mass please click on this link:

At present we do not have the ability to live stream the Mass however this is available on a number of church websites including St Lawrence’s at Sidcup. (stlsidcup.org).

The following links also provide access to the broadcasting of the live celebration of Holy Mass from churches in the UK and Ireland.
The website address is:

With every blessing.

Fr Doug Bull

Following the new tighter restrictions the Archbishop has sent the following letter to all parishes:

  
  

SUNDAY 22nd MARCH 2020 – 4th SUNDAY OF LENT (A)

Readings: 1 Samuel 16,1b,6-7,10-13a St Paul to Eph 5:8-14 Gospel John 9:1-41

In today’s Gospel, the healing of the man born blind invites us to focus on the physical and spiritual aspects of sight and light. The blind man went off and washed himself, and came away with his sight restored.

Fr Doug will continue to say Mass privately
