Mass in person, a message from our Bishop's
"It is hoped that it will be possible for all Catholics in England and Wales to fulfil this most important Church precept, that of the Sunday Obligation, by the First Sunday in Advent 2021. In the meantime, all Catholics are asked to do their best to participate in the celebration of the weekly Sunday Mass and to reflect deeply on the centrality of Sunday worship in the life of the Church."

GREETINGS FROM THE PARISH PRIEST
Peace be with you! Throughout restrictions to our movements, be they national lock downs or the various tiers of restriction, the Catholic parish of Bognor & Slindon remains here in the service of those around us as we follow Jesus, and share his love with the whole world.
With legal limits on numbers removed, it is not currently necessary to book places for Mass. However, with sensitivity to the different pace at which people feel safe to return to Mass, please note: the front right area of Our Lady of Sorrows will continue as an area where places of prayer are set at 1m apart, and these spaces will need to be booked by clicking here.
Fr Chris Bergin
If you need access to the sacraments or any support from the parish, please do not hesitate to contact me via 01243 823619.
