There will be no 9:30am Mass on Holy Thursday morning 17th April.

The Sacrament of Reconciliation will be available after the Stations of the Cross and after the Lord’s Passion at both churches on Good Friday, however, from past experience expect long lines and waits of up to one hour. Instead, you might like to come to reconciliation at one of the usual times:

Tuesday 5pm – 6pm at OLHC

Thursday 10am – 10.30 at St Gerard’s

Saturday 8.30am – 9am at OLHC

Saturday 5.15pm – 5.45pm at St Gerard’s.

Or one of the extra times we’re offering in Holy Week:

Monday & Wednesday at St Gerard’s following 9.30am Mass

Thursday 9.30am in lieu of Mass
