St Johns and All Saints Churches

Update 19/03/2020

We are now able to update on the changing situation. Priests have now been instructed by the Bishops to be clear that ALL PUBLIC WORSHIP is SUSPENDED. Therefore while a Priest will say the Mass at some point on behalf of the Parish every day, he has to do so alone.

St John’s church will be open each day between 10.00am to 6pm for priv.ate prayer. St MARY’S SEAHAM & ALL SAINTS DENESIDE  will remain closed until further notice. Please observe hygiene rules and avoid social contact.

While Churches hold parishioners addresses on the Electoral Roll it would be good if we had telephone numbers so we can organise regular communications for pastoral care, spiritual help as weell as keeping in touch.

Therefore anyone wishing to give this information please send it to the Church Warden Sue or text us. Please pass on the information to those you know that may not be online.

We continue to pray daily for the current situation and all affected by it and all parishioners should you need the help of your Priest do not hesitate to contact us.

Update on 22/03/2020
We hope that streaming at this morning’s Masses was helpful to some people and we hope to do this each Sunday while the current restrictions are in place, and hopefully our technique-volume etc. will improve with practice. We will also post each week’s Sunday readings and a homily from Fr Paul, Fr Mark or Fr Chris.

Sunday readings etc. can be found in our news/blog.

We want to stay in touch with everyone so when you are in contact with each other please remind one another to let Church Warden Sue your telephone numbers.

Don’t forget your priests are praying for you and are here for you.

Father Paul Kennedy
