To receive Holy Communion: one must be a Catholic, in state of grace, one-hour fasting at least. In the EF liturgy, Holy Communion is received kneeling (unless unable to) and always on the tongue. Thank you in advance.

All must dress modestly in church out of reverence for God and of respect for fellow-worshippers. Chest and limbs must be covered down to elbows and knees at least. No sportswear. Sunday best should be worn by all on Sundays and feasts: suit and tie for men and boys, dresses for women and girls. Men keep their heads uncovered within church; women are encouraged to wear a scarf, hat or mantilla. Thank you.

Switch OFF your mobile phone before you enter our church. Letting it ring inside the church gravely disturbs the quiet of the sacred place. Thank you for your consideration.

Safeguarding: If you have concerns about children or vulnerable adults, please contact the Archdiocesan Safeguarding Department on 0151 522 1043 or e-mail safeguarding@rcaol.co.uk, or speak with Clare Fraser, St Mary’s Safeguarding Officer. Thank you for your awareness.

HOLY MASS INTENTIONS

Other Mass intentions are applied at Private Masses. Kindly ask Fr Stewart for details.

HOW MUCH DOES A MASS COST: Holy Mass stipends do not pay for the infinite merits of the Sacrifice of the Mass, but for the sustenance of the clergy offering it. While our priests might offer Holy Mass without a stipend or with a smaller one, ten pounds (£10.00) is considered customary. Each priest retains the full amount of the stipend allocated for the Mass he offers on a given day; however no priest may retain more than one stipend per day, even if offering more than one Mass that day. Thank you.

COMMUNAL SHRINE INTENTIONS: Consider offering your usual stipend for the following weekly Mass intentions, otherwise offered without a stipend: All St Mary’s Faithful; All St Mary’s penitents; FSSP seminarians or Clergy. Please write one of these intentions on the Mass envelope, insert your stipend and put it in the collection basket. Thank you.
