COVID REGULATIONS FOR LEVEL 0

Although we have moved into Level 0 you must still maintain social distancing of 1 metre. Test and Protect is still being enforced and we will require details of all those attending Mass. You will still be required to wear a mask while within the church and sanitise your hands on entering. Passkeepers will show you to a seat and will ensure that you are safely directed if you are receiving Communion. We will accommodate as many as safe to do so.

Our Lady of Aberdeen Hymn, words on Prayer Page.

PRAYER FOR SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

My Jesus I believe you are present in this Holy Sacrament of the altar.

I love you above all things and I passionately desire to receive you into my soul.

Since I cannot receive you sacramentally, come spiritually into my soul so that I may unite myself wholly to you now and forever. Amen

YEAR OF ST JOSEPH.

With the Apostolic Letter “Patris corde” (“With a Father’s Heart”), Pope Francis recalls the 150th anniversary of the declaration of Saint Joseph as Patron of the Universal Church. To mark the occasion, the Holy Father has proclaimed a “Year of Saint Joseph” from 8 December 2020 to 8 December 2021. To celebrate this a special prayer to St Joseph will be recited after each Mass. You are encouraged to join in with the prayer above
