Due to the Scottish Government removing the cap on numbers attending church services we will now be able to welcome more people to mass on Saturday evening and Sunday morning. At Our Lady’s church the maximum number that can be safely accommodated for Sunday Mass will be 45. However we will still not be able to accommodate everyone who usually attended so please remember to show consideration for others and not assume you can book every week.

Please be aware

Booking for mass will open at 9 a.m. two days prior to the mass (so 9 a.m. Thursday for Saturday vigil and 9 a.m. Friday for Sunday mass)

Face-coverings will need to be worn at all times unless you are exempt

Hand-sanitising and one-way systems will continue

Children under five are not included in the number so you do not need to book a space for them

Archbishop Cushley has suggested we pray the Memorare each day.

Along with our Holy Father Pope Francis, please pray for those for whom this has become a tragedy. Don’t forget those in self-isolation, especially the elderly and vulnerable. Please reach out to them either by phone or social media; offer help, and let them know they are not forgotten. Remember all those in our medical profession, doctors, nurses, support workers and care workers who are in the front line of our defence and treatment of the virus.

Please let us pray for one another as we face this unprecedented and worrying time in the life of the Church.

Monsignor Tony
