With the recent announcement as part of the State Government's Roadmap out of Lockdown - Places of Worship are now permitted to allow parishioners to attend services. 

​

The number of permitted parishioners also includes deacons, therefore we will allocate 2 deacons per service. This allows 8 people indoors and 18 people outdoors for the time being. Parishioners can start to attend from Tuesday 3 November. And can book at stmarkscocmelb.as.me

​

Bookings will be released in 2 week batches. We ask everyone to only book once a month to ensure everyone receives the blessing of attending, unless the day before the date of a service there is availability. All bookings are to be made online, please ensure to help each other especially those who can't access the internet themselves.

​

Remember: masks are compulsory, hand sanitiser must be used upon entry, 1.5m is to be kept between each other at all times, no physical contact (hugging or handshaking), no socialising after services and please do not attend if you have any flu-like symptoms.
