Latest Updates
Following the announcement from the Prime Minister on Monday evening that the whole country is to be locked down on alert level 5, Fr Bill has taken the decision to use this time for his much needed annual leave. Therefore there will be no public worship at SJB for at least the rest of January, with immediate effect.
For the time being there will be no live streaming of Masses, however the stream will stay live for virtual private prayer.
