We welcome all who come to our churches either for the scheduled liturgies or for a private visit and a time of quiet.

 

Saint Francis Church is opened:

- Mon- Fri 8.30am to 4.00pm (winter) / 6.00pm (summer) 

- Saturdays 10.00am to 4.00pm (or 7.00pm when there is a Vigil Mass)

- Sundays 7.30am until 4.00pm

 

Saint Joseph’s Church is open an hour or more before all liturgies and we are working on having it open more often.

 

We aim to keep to a regular liturgical schedule, but for any number of reasons we have to make changes now and again.
