Your Christmas Offering

​Your Christmas Offering is traditionally your personal gift to the priests of our parish. Please take one of our beautifully printed Christmas Offering Envelopes, into which you may place your offering. If you are a member of the Gift Aid scheme, you are asked to write your Gift Aid number in the box provided or, alternatively, to use the blue Gift Aid envelope you have been provided with.
The latest COVID guidance 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.

December is the month of The Immaculate Conception

The Immaculate Conception of Mary is a profound mystery. In the Immaculate Conception, Mary was without sin from the first moment of her conception. She is perfectly united forever to her spouse, the Holy Spirit. Their fruitful union produced a wedding of heaven and earth in the God-Man, Jesus Christ. We will meditate on these truths for all eternity.

Accessibility - St. Bartholomew's does its utmost to accommodate those with additional needs. Whilst the main body of the church is wholly accessible to people with mobility disabilities, the choir gallery is both approached by stairs and the seating is then stepped by design. The church has a wheelchair-accessible toilet, and baby-changing facilities. There is a Loop System (AFIL) in place in the church.
