Registrations are still required.  Prior phone booking or registration on arrival. A QR code is available for those who wish to use it.

1.  Masks must be carried at all times and worn inside the church if social distancing is not possible

2.  Mass bookings are essential, however for those people who have attended a regular Mass over the last 4 weeks, you do not need to keep registering unless you cannot attend or wish to change your preferred Mass.

3.  You must contact the person coordinating your preferred Mass - 6.00pm Bernadette Brown on 0447 743 138, 9.00am, Marg Vallence 0403 568 302, 11.00am Adriana De Leo on 9723 4275, to make these changes. This will allow others to attend given the limited capacity of our Church.

4. Mass attendance lists are prepared each Friday, the person on the list is the person that needs to attend Mass and not substituted with another person{s}.

5.  Everyone attending Mass must sanitize their hands on entering the Church and ensure they are seated in the pews, couples and family groups (who share a household) can sit together ensuring 1.5 meters distance from others sharing a row.

6.  The main entrance door to the Church will be locked at 6.00pm, 9.00am and 11.00am, so please ensure you arrive at least five minutes before Mass time.
