POST PANDEMIC MASS TIMES
Following the announcement last Saturday from the World Health Organisation (WHO) that the Covid Pandemic is no longer a global health emergency, we would however encourage parishioners who come to Mass to continue sanitising hands on entering any of the churches. Even the common cold is a virus and we have learned so much over the past three years about the duty of care we have to others.
As a result of this declassification of the Covid 19 emergency, daily Masses in Ballinascreen and Desertmartin will revert to the pre-Covid 19 Mass times.
From Monday May 15, daily Mass will begin at the earlier time of 10.00 am. We hope this new time will suit more people.
As always, funeral Masses will take place at 11.00 am and any necessary changes in Mass times that may arise will be posted on the Parish Facebook Page.
