PLEASE NOTE-

Due to many families being disappointed when it comes to seeking a Months Mind or a First Anniversary Mass for a relative. In order to facilitate these families in their bereavement, from 1st. March, only Months Mind Masses and First Anniversary Masses can be booked in advance for the Saturday Evening Vigil Mass. Anniversary Masses may be booked at any of the Morning Masses or the Vigil Mass in the week prior to the anniversary. Should a Funeral Mass occur the 10.00am Mass is cancelled that morning, Anniversary Masses booked on that day will be rescheduled to another suitable day. Thank you for your co-operation.
