Sunday and Monday Mass
In Our Lady & St. Joseph’s in Kirkwall we celebrate Sunday Mass at 5:30pm.
Mass typically lasts between 40-60 minutes.
We celebrate Monday Mass at 11:45am.
Occasionally, due to weather or other ferry disruption Father may be unable to make it over from Thurso. A more limited service may be available in these circumstances. We also sometimes have visiting clergy who may prefer to celebrate Mass at different times. We will try to advertise this when it occurs.
Sanday Mass
“The Sacred Heart of Jesus” Chapel, Saville, Sanday. This Chapel is at Saville, the home of two parishioners, Maurice and Jean Soord. Special permission has been given by the Bishop, for the Reservation of the Blessed Sacrament. The Chapel is open to all who wish to pray there.
Once a month, our Parish Priest visits from Kirkwall to celebrate Mass. Because he is unable to celebrate Mass frequently, there is a Service of The Liturgy of the Word and Holy Communion each Sunday at 10.00am. For details of Father’s attendance, please see the Parish bulletin.
