In light of the recent government guidance putting the country back into a full national lockdown it has been decided to reduce the hours that the prebytery is open. It's hoped that by minimising contact we will be able to continue providing the same service to you all going forward. Rachel will be in the office on Monday and Wednesday mornings between 9am and 12.30pm. The mass booking system will operate in the same way through the parish website and Rachel will continue to send confirmation of bookings on Wednesday mornings. Please feel free to email any other enquiries outside of these hours and we will reply as soon as possible.
In these troubled times if you are feeling depressed , stressed or anxious ,please make contact with Havering Talk Therapies (IAPT)

Boris Johnson visits St Joseph's Catholic Primary School and The Sacred Heart of Mary Girls' School, Upminster Monday 10th August 2020
On Monday 10th August the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, visited St Joseph's School. He was welcomed by Mrs Bernadette Matthews, headteacher. He came to see for himself the measures that have been put in place for the re-opening of the school in September. The Head took him on a tour of the school and he was pleased to see that everything is in place. He asked many questions and from them it is obvious he is concerned about the children's safety and welfare. He thanked Mrs Matthews for all she and the staff are doing to protect the children and for all the time and dedication that they have shown. The Prime Minister also visited Sacred Heart of Mary Girls' School where Ms Qurrey the Headteacher showed him the Summer Camp that has been running throughout the summer in action.
