·        Keep the Church, hall and surroundings clean & tidy

·        After the mass give way for other faithful to take part in the Holy Mass Those coming by cars please leave immediately after the mass and allow others to park

It has been remarked that the prayerful atmosphere in the Church is not been kept up. During Mass, children run around, people find talking, mobiles are on, the response is very slow and not audible etc. The Temple of God is made many times a noisy place especially during this special service. Please be aware of the Presence of the Eucharistic Lord and do not forget that people are praying. So, kindly keep up the decorum of the Church and allow others to participate the Holy Mass without disturbances.

Wishing everyone a Blessed, Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year 2013!
