Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Due to recently announced restrictions, in place to keep us all safe from the Coronavirus, St Chad's is now closed to the public until further notice.

The Bishops of England and Wales want everyone to understand that in these emergency circumstances, and for as long as they last, the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days is removed.

I will celebrate Mass every day on my own during this time, missing your presence, but keeping you in my prayers.   Knowing that the Mass is being celebrated and making an act of spiritual communion is how we share in the Sacrifice of Christ in these days.  Through these we will sanctify Sunday, and indeed every day.   Live streaming of our weekend Masses is available on the Church Services website.

It is important during these challenging times that we care for one another, especially those who are elderly and vulnerable.  Whilst there are many practical things we can do, simply keeping in touch with people can bring much comfort in these difficult times.

I will keep you all updated as and when I am able.

May God bless and protect you and your families at this time,

Fr Sean
