Watch mass for Sunday 19 July from St Brigid’s beginning at 10.30am streamed live below.
Returning to public mass in our churches
Dear parishioners and friends of our 3 Churches:
We are very happy to announce that later this week we will return to public mass in our churches. As you will see below, we will begin on Friday 24th and Saturday 25th with Mass at St Brigid’s at 9.30am, continuing at Christ the King Saturday 6pm and Sunday 9am, and then St Brigid’s Sunday 10.30am and 6pm.
- at these Masses we will welcome all who wish to come up to the limit for each Mass. If the numbers require it, on future weekends we will operate some kind of “booking” system
- however, remember that the Sunday Obligation is still lifted – you might want to consider coming on a different day to allow needy parishioners to come at their convenience
- 10.30 Mass at St Brigid’s will continue to be live streamed for the foreseeable future
- to comply with directives, there can be no mass sheets or hymn books, and various other restrictions to enable things to run smoothly – to this end please follow the stewards’ assistance – for example by not lingering in the buildings after mass
- Stewards – obviously more stewards are needed for public mass, please consider whether you can offer this service and contact Ansti at anstic2018@yahoo.com (St Brigid’s) or Marie at llanishen@rcadc.org (Christ the King)
- St Paul’s have also started the process of opening the church, so watch this space
It will be wonderful to be able to be back together again. We are very grateful to all those who have worked so hard to get us to this point. Well done!

Starting to reawaken…
Dear parishioners and friends of our 3 Churches
The Governors of Christ the King School are pleased to announce that Mrs Sue Miles has been appointed substantive (i.e. “full”) Headteacher of the school from September. She has been Acting Head and Head of School while Mrs Woodward’s position was resolved.
It was great this week to be able to welcome parishioners to St Brigid’s and Christ the King churches (see our newsletter). Slowly things are starting to reawaken aren’t they? I’ve heard several images for this in the media this week. On Gareth Malone’s programme a lad wrote a song about after the storm, and then on Radio 4 one morning they spoke of the sun appearing in the sky. So let’s all pray that the sun is coming out after the storm. We know that some speak of a new wave in the future, but the Lord teaches us that today has enough worries, and not to worry about the future. So – let’s stay safe, stay calm, stay with the Lord – and stay with one another, in whatever way you – we – can.
