Changes to the horarium

At the moment, we have no chaplain. During this time, there will be no Mass at the Abbey. The nuns will be going to mass on Sundays at St Matthew’s church, Jamberoo at 9.30 am.

We are happy to welcome Fr Denis as our new chaplain. Fr Denis’ first mass with us will be on First Sunday of Advent, 30 November 2025, 9 am.
