It is Father Gorran’s wish that this should be a normal Sunday morning service, for the regular congregation of Saint Martin’s. Under the current COVID 19 restrictions, we have enough room for these, but we cannot encourage greater numbers to attend and we cannot offer any hospitality or opportunity for people to mingle. Everyone has made great sacrifices over the last year and he does not want this occasion to be the time when we throw that all away. BUT all is not lost, as he has agreed to return for a proper Farewell when we celebrate our Patronal Festival - see below:

Also the DEDICATION OF OUR RE-ORDERED SACRISTY. This is the nearest Saturday to November 11th, St. Martin's Day. Father Gorran is returning to Celebrate and Preach at our Sung Mass, and also to bless our Sacristy, following the completion of the re-ordering work this Summer. This will be the occasion when we hope to give him the Farewell he deserves, when friends near and far can travel to be with us, fill the Church, and enjoy a buffet together afterwards in the Church Hall.
