Please note that St Theresa's Catholic Church in Plimmerton is closed following the discovery of toxic mould spores after the November flood so all weekend services have been moved to the hall at Bishop Viard College, 20 Kenepuru Drive, Porirua in the meantime. Christmas Eve Family Mass is at 6pm tomorrow evening (carol singing from 5:45pm) and there will be a 9:30am Mass on Christmas Day - same location. Apologies to all for the inconvenience. Once businesses reopen in January we will be working to make the Church a safe environment again. Blessings to you all this Christmas.
