Please note that this session’s catechism classes have now stopped. Next session’s classes will commence in early September.

Many congratulations to the children who received the sacraments of Confirmation and First Holy Communion recently. Thanks to all in St Andrew’s and the Cathedral who supported the children & their parents – catechists, musicians, florists, cleaners and breakfast celebration team.’

A reminder that First Holy Communions will be at 11am in both parishes (Cathedral and Ravelston) on Saturday 3rd June. Obviously this means that there will be no Exposition in the Cathedral on that day.
