Mission Sunday Collection: This Sunday is Mission Sunday. We are asked to support our missionaries financially through the Mission Sunday Collection. All proceeds from this collection goes to the Missions. Collection Envelope is included in your Envelope Collection pack.  All cheques should be made payable to St. Michael’s Church.

Covid Restrictions: With the easing of restrictions we are now allowed full capacity in our churches.  While this is good news we are asking people to be mindful that Covid 19 has not gone away so we still need to be careful. With this in mind you are asked to: * Continue to wear a mask in church. * Sanitize your hands on entering the building. * Not to gather in numbers at the back of the church but to sit in the seats.

Newsletter:  We have started issuing the Newsletter/Mass Leaflet from this weekend.  You are asked that if you take a copy to bring it home and not leave it in the church for others to touch or handle.  Items for the Newsletter should be left into the Office/Sacristy by Thursday for inclusion at the weekend.

Anniversary Masses: can be booked for weekend mass from next weekend. We will still have the Anniversary List which will only be read out at the 11am Sunday Mass for those listening to Tipp Mid West and are unable to attend church.  For those in church the names will be printed on the Mass Leaflet. 

Holy Communion: will be distributed at the normal time during mass after this weekend and we ask that you keep coming up in an orderly fashion.

Confessions: We will begin to hear confessions from next Saturday 30th Oct 3.00pm-4.00pm.  We will not be using the Confessions Boxes but the sacristy/side chapel.   

Eucharistic Ministers:  A meeting of all Eucharistic Ministers will take place in St. Michael’s Church on Wednesday 27th Oct at 7.00pm to arrange new rosters etc. 

Basket Collection: We will not return to the basket collection at mass for the present.  We ask that you make a contribution at the boxes at the back.  We really appreciate all who have been doing this faithfully up to now.
