Kindly be informed that the Catholic News had inadvertantly published the wrong timing for our Mass & candlelight procession on 12th Feb as 6am. It should be 6pm. They have since apologised to us and will insert under the "WHAT'S ON" column
with the correct timing in the next issue.
When you enter the House of God, please dress suitably for the Celebration of the Holy Mass. Kindly note that this attire does not accord due respect to a place of worship:
Singlets, Running/Boxer shorts, Hotpants, Low Cut Dresses, Shorts, Skirts, Tank Tops & Slippers/Flip Flops
