Saturday Vigil Mass

We are now streaming our Vigil Mass live from St Andrew’s each Saturday at 5:30pm, our normal service time. You can access the Mass below or simply browse to the St Andrew’s channel on YouTube (there is a link on the front page of the website). The steam becomes live 15 minutes before the start of Mass.

Sacred Heart Devotion – Online Via Zoom

Following our successful online Parish Rosary in May, we will continue in June with Devotions to the Sacred Heart.
This is an interactive service via Zoom and you will be able to see and talk to you fellow parishioners.
More information, including booking information, is contained here.

Church Reopening

Although the church remains closed in line with government guidance, we are making plans ready for the reopening in whatever form it takes.
One part of the opening will be increased cleaning and sanitisation in the church.
Can you help?. We would like to have a team of parishioners who can work on a rota basis to help keep the church open. Please get in touch via the contact page.

STANDING ORDERS

With the present lockdown the parish income has been greatly reduced, because parishioners are unable to make their usual offerings in the collection. 
In the light of this I should be most grateful if parishioners would consider setting up a Standing Order to the parish. 
If you feel you would like to do this, please email me parishpriest@standrewscottam.org.uk and I shall forward you the parish account details. 
Many thanks for your generosity.  Canon Adrian

100 CLUB

During the current lockdown we cannot run our normal monthly 100 club draw.
Once the lockdown is lifted, and we can return to normal life, we will ensure all the draws that have been missed are played.
If you are due to pay your 100 club weekly membership; please wait until the lockdown situation is lifted before sending your money into church.
