Eulogy

Following a review by the government the Archdiocese is able to ease the requirement on signing up in advance for attending Mass, provided that a distance of at least one metre between households is maintained in the church. Masks will be worn if the distance is less than 2 metres and for entering and leaving the church and going to Communion.

An area of the church with 2 metres social distancing will be reserved for those who feel they fall into the more vulnerable categories.  Places can be reserved in advance by calling the parish office: 661 127 962.

There is a ghost in the Harry Potter stories called ‘Nearly Headless Nick’ whose head was partly detached from his body. His name came to my mind when I looked at the FaceBook stream of Mass this morning: the camera was badly positioned, and for the most of time at the at the altar I was visible without my head, and at the chair completely invisible. Apologies for this. I will have a word with the camera crew (ie. myself!) and try to ensure this doesn’t happen again.

Thank you for your patience!

(Nearly Headless) Fr Ed
