Ballarat Community Notices
25 November
As from Sunday, November 22, St Alipius would like to welcome back many parishioners, and families of those attending school in our parish boundaries: St Alipius, Emmaus, St Francis Xavier and Damascus.
For this coming weekend (and until restrictions ease further) we can have 85 people attending Mass at St Alipius church (Ballarat East) and 75 people attending Mass at Ss Peter & Paul (Buninyong), according to the 4sqm rule.
At St Alipius, we have a pre-registration process from our website (sapliturgy.net.au) that needs to be completed by 5pm each Friday.
At Ss Peter & Paul, we have a registration process on entry, so those thinking of attending there should arrive 10-15 minutes earlier.
Mass is also videoed each week (mostly Saturday night vigil) and made available on the SAP Liturgy website so people can ‘attend’ Mass at your pleasure on Sunday or during the week if you are not able to attend in person. A special St Alipius ‘Spiritual Communion’ prayer has also been written.
