Your chance to attend Mass in the Extraordinary Form

If you live in or around Swansea, this coming Sunday, 22nd December, the Fourth Sunday of Advent, you may attend a Latin Mass at 12 noon at St Joseph's Cathedral. The celebrant will be Fr Michael Burke.


You will see, from the video below, that you do not have to be 'ancient' to attend the Latin Mass, some of the nuns who feature in the clip are barely out of their teens.

So, if you have never been to a Latin Mass before, this is your chance, carpe diem!

Blessing of cribs and crib figures

Please bring any cribs or crib figures to the 3pm Mass at Morriston tomorrow (15th) when Father Jason will bless them.

It is most important to ensure that all holy objects are blessed, none more so than Christmas Cribs.
