St Francis Church Tairua
Welcome
by Father Francis Bennett
In Level 2, St Francis Church is functioning within the government-assigned protocols. Sunday services are under way (9.30am), with masking and distancing, but without singing or Eucharist as yet.
[However, Op Shop will be closed until we’re back in Level 1, due to space constraints.]
