As we begin to wind down for the summer we are reducing the number of weekly notifications to one plus any urgent announcements that may arise. This week’s chapter of our Bible based story ‘A man called Noah’ is already on the blog section of our website https://christchurchbray.ie/. As the waters continue to rise, life on board the ARK takes on a surreal existence. Also on our website later this week will be our service sheet for next Sunday’s service of Morning Prayer at 11am. You can join us in person or online via the website or by clicking the link https://www.churchservices.tv/christchurchbray. As our numbers each week are consistently below 50 we do not need you to confirm your intention to attend, just be gracious if you arrive late and there’s no room at the inn!! As ever, please take care, stay safe and be kind. Shalom. Baden

My thanks to Tracey who has been very busy typing the final chapters of ‘A man called Noah’ before finishing up for the summer on Wednesday. If technology behaves itself, each new chapter of our Bible based story should appear on the blog section of our website every Monday morning at 10am, up to and including the August bank holiday. For those of you coming new to this series, all previous chapters are also on the blog section of our website https://christchurchbray.ie/ This week’s chapter can be accessed by clicking the link here: https://christchurchbray.ie/2021/06/24/a-man-called-noah-chapter-20/. Enjoy. Shalom. Baden

Dear friends,
We want to warmly welcome you back again to celebrate public Masses together.
Planning for the re-opening, while respecting the restrictions, is tricky . First of all, our space is reduced from 200 people in Little Flower Oratory to 33!! Added to that, we have no idea how many people will feel comfortable about returning to Masses.
We make one request of you. Please bear with us, especially in these first weeks of re-opening. If it’s not possible to attend on one day ⎯ because seating is limited ⎯ come on the following day. Little by little, over the weeks we will be able to monitor the numbers and find a way to ensure that you can attend Mass if not once a week, at least once a month.
Over-leaf you will find details of Mass times and locations. If there are changes to this, we’ll let you know. Thank you again for your patience.
May the Lord bless you and protect you
Fr. Michael and the ‘Return to Church’ steering group
Visiting the Little Flower OratoryChurches have re-opened from Monday 29th June. That means it will be possible to visit the Little Flower Oratory for prayer. It will be open from 9.30am to 12.30pm from Monday to Friday.
MassesTo protect those who would like to attend Mass, a number of regulations have to be followed:
- Due to social distancing, the maximum number of people who can attend Mass in the Little Flower Oratory (LFO) is 33
- Entering LFO has to be regulated, just like entering a supermarket. A team of parishioners have very kindly volunteered to steward.
- After each Mass the seats have to be sanitised. Again, this has been arranged.
- On Sunday, the number of those who would like to attend Mass will be higher. So, neighbouring parishes have very kindly made their churches available to Holy Redeemer parishioners.
Mass times10am – Monday, Wednesday and Friday – Little Flower Oratory
12 noon – Sunday – St. Fergal’s Church
6pm – Sunday – Queen of Peace
Since the LFO is restricted to 33 people, those who would like attend will be asked to limit attendance to one day per week. In this way, when the seating area is full, those who were not able to enter will be invited to come to Mass on the next occasion.
Likewise, those who have attended during the week will be asked not to attend on a Sunday, to leave room for those who are working or cannot attend during the week. Masses on Sunday will be celebrate in St. Fergal’s or Queen of Peace (see above).

Cornerstone Church at the Well
Here's a nurse from the UK explaining how we need to pray for our hospitals. We in Ireland are very much in the same position:
Health officials have been warning that Ireland will see a sudden spike in cases that could leave hospitals overwhelmed. Dr O'Connor, President of the Irish Association for Emergency Medicine, said that it is expected within the next week or two. The increase will happen "quickly and strongly" over the next fortnight, and that a huge amount of people "will get seriously ill, quickly and at the same time".
