The latest COVID guidance, dated 10 December 2021, from the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England & Wales is available here.
Track & Trace Forms still apply at all Sunday and Holy Day of Obligation Masses, even if attending twice in one day. Should you have, or suspect you have, symptoms, and you have attended St. Bartholomew's (or any other church), you can get help by visiting the Test and Trace Digital Service or by calling 119. You must provide details of your attendance at church as one of your contacts - they can then contact us directly which speeds up the process of tracing everybody who needs to know.
Face coverings remain mandatory. Stewards will be on duty. The Obligation to attend Sunday Mass remains suspended by our Bishops.

January is the month of The Holy Name of Jesus
There is no name more powerful than the name of Jesus. The Catechism sums up the power of this name beautifully: “The name ‘Jesus’ contains all: God and man and the whole economy of creation and salvation. To pray ‘Jesus’ is to invoke him and to call him within us. His name is the only one that contains the presence it signifies. Jesus is the Risen One, and whoever invokes the name of Jesus is welcoming the Son of God who loved him and who gave himself up for him” (CCC #2666)
