This is a short service of Holy Communion. There is no music at it but many like it because it is a smaller congregation and therefore more intimate.   We ask that people respect that some need more space than others in order to feel comfortable. Whilst mask wearing is no longer mandated, people may feel more comfortable wearing a mask.

 You are very welcome as you join us for a Service of Holy Communion in St Thomas’ Church, Mount Merrion.

The House of Bishops has instructed parishes to use the common chalice having given permission for individual cups to be used during the pandemic.   We will be re-introducing the common chalice during Holy Communion but will also have the option of receiving from little individual cups.

St Thomas’ Sunday Club will meet this morning in the Monk Gibbon Hall (in the grounds of the church) at 9.30.  The children and leaders will join the rest of the congregation towards the end of the Service.   All children who are aged three years or over and who are toilet-trained are very welcome at Sunday Club.  A consent form from the parents/guardians of each child attending Sunday Club is required.  All of our leaders have been Garda vetted and have undergone Safeguarding Trust (Child Protection) training.
