Aberavon Parish

We are so proud of all of you who are only going out if it’s absolutely essential, and then only once a day. You will help in the fight to limit the spread of the virus and limit the deaths.

Delighted to say St Agnes’ is open for private prayer from 10am to 4pm Monday to Saturday. Sanitisation cleansing programme in place on the hour every hour. BUT YOU MUST PLAY YOUR PART too, please. 14 person maximum in church at any one time.

Looking forward to welcoming people to St Agnes’ for private prayer. Just a few more things to do and from 10am Tuesday we should be open. Strict social distancing and a one way system in and out.

We’re not going to be closed for ever! We are working on plans to open up and welcome you back as soon as government regulations allow. All within social distancing rules of course. 😀

If you are passionate about building strong social relationships and bringing communities together to be stronger and enhance the lives of individuals, we may have a job for you. Check it out parishofaberavon.org #compassionatecommunities #commpassionatecymru

Drones are now being used to distribute public information messages across NPT during the #coronavirus outbreak. We have teamed up with @swpolice to survey hotspots where people are not following government measures on social distancing 1/2 @saferneathpt @SWPNeath @SWPPortTalbot

I call on all local businesses still operating to ensure that they have arrangements in place for social distancing of their employees. It may be difficult but every action must be taken to safeguard workers.

Following the Prime Minister’s broadcast to the nation, and with immediate effect all our churches will remain locked. Mass will be live-streamed from St Agnes’ every Sunday at 10am.

Please stay at home and follow expert advice to prevent the spread of #Coronavirus. Do it for yourself, do it for #NHSWales, and do it for your community - you can help to save lives. This video message was recorded by A&E Consultant Tim Rogerson @Drtmr @gwentpolice

Keep us, good Lord, under the shadow of your mercy. Sustain and support the anxious, be with those who care for the sick, and lift up all who are brought low; that we may find comfort knowing that nothing can separate us from your love in Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen @LlandaffDio
