As you may be aware, government authorities have now allowed Church doors to reopen for Masses with 10 people (over and above the priest and ministers).

To comply with the guidelines in connection with the gradual opening of Churches for prayer & Masses, we ask you when you visit the Church to comply with the following:

1. Record your name, address, phone number and email in the book provided in the foyer as you enter the Church (this is a government requirement for contacting people in case of a Corona cluster).
2. Keep physical distance from others by only sitting in the places marked on the pews with a red cross.
3. Use hand sanitiser when entering and leaving the Church.
4. Avoid touching statues or other fixtures in the Church.

Chance to Attend Mass

If you would like to chance to attend a Mass of 10 people, please email holy.family@bigpond.com or phone the Parish Office 9349 1198 and give your full name and phone number. A list of these names will be created from which the Parish will re-contact you to advise you when you could participate. There will be no bias or preference shown, we will simply work through the list, inviting groups of 10 people at a time.

If you have particular needs, please contact the parish on 9349 1198 or holy.family@bigpond.com.

Supporting our Seafarers during the Pandemic.

Donations of personal hygiene products (shampoo, body wash, toothpaste, deodorant, razors, knitted beanies and chocolates) are desperately needed for the thousands of seamen currently stranded on ships on our waterfront due to the Coronavirus. If you would like to help out, St. Andrew’s Malabar is the drop off point for the Eastern Suburbs. Your donations will be greatly appreciated.
