St Mary Magdalen - Temporary Church Closure
Following the incident last Sunday when a small area of ceiling plaster became detached, we have had to close the church until a survey can be carried out and any necessary remedial work undertaken. We thank the Lord that no one was injured when this happened.
The church will reopen as soon as we can do so safely.
Thanks to the support and understanding of St Mary Magdalen School, we will celebrate the 11am Sunday Mass in the school hall. Access to the school hall will be via the playground off Spring Street.
5pm Sunday Mass will be celebrated in the parish hall next to the church.
There is no Friday evening Adoration or Mass until the church has been reopened.
Pray for the reopening of our parish church.
With every blessing,
Fr Rod
