Closure of Churches from Monday 23rd March'20
Following revised advice and the statement earlier from the UK and Scottish Governments Bishop Toal announces the closure of all Churches in the Diocese of Motherwell for the foreseeable future.
Sadly this means that St. Edwards's Church will remain closed until further notice.
We invite you to unite to your parish community spiritually through family prayer in your homes during these challenging times.
The Bishops' Conference of Scotland has announced that no public Masses will be celebrated in Scotland as the coronavirus continues to spread from Thursday March 19.
In an unprecedented move, the bishop said priests will continue to celebrate Mass in private, praying for those suffering from the illness and those who care for them.
Priests will also be available for the reception of the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick and Holy Communion as and when they are needed, particularly for the sick and the housebound.
We will update this website as soon as the current situation changes.
