It's been decades since we've had the Presanctified Liturgy regularly celebrated in Lent at our parish. I've had a question come up, 🙋🙋♂️🙋♀️ and I thought it best to answer here 🗣️
Q: How do we prepare for Communion at the Presanctified Liturgy?
A: Through prayer, fasting, and recent Confession.

-
-
NB: Confession won't be available during the Presanctified Liturgy. (It is available after Lenten Matins, which is at 6:30am on days prior to the Presanctified Liturgy, or on the weekend prior, or by appointment).
Thank you all! If you have any further questions, please ask Fr Andrew directly.
Q: How do we prepare for Communion at the Presanctified Liturgy?
A: Through prayer, fasting, and recent Confession.
-
Prayer: as normal. The prayers can be read on the day (ie on Wednesday), or could be read the day before (ie Tuesday).-
Fasting: Communing in the evening typically means fasting from midday until Communion. (If you require a dispensation for health reasons, please speak to your priest [and if that's Fr Andrew, message him directly]). -
Recent Confession: as normal. NB: Confession won't be available during the Presanctified Liturgy. (It is available after Lenten Matins, which is at 6:30am on days prior to the Presanctified Liturgy, or on the weekend prior, or by appointment).

Exciting news! We are getting closer to the 'building renovation start date' for our church building. Work is currently scheduled to start in mid May.
We wanted to share these mock up posters of what the new building will look like.
The hall, kitchen & bathroom will be underneath the church. The church will be moved forward and be expanded.
Thank you to everyone who has already put in so much hard work on this project!
There's much work ahead of us, (and much funds to be raised) your prayers for those working on this project are much appreciated!
