The Relic Chapel

Work will shortly begin on the refurbishment of the Relic Chapel. We hope to begin the work by the end of June and finish in mid-September, in good time for the visit of the relics of St Thérèse of Lisieux in October.

The font will be taken away to be restored, and will probably not return until the new chapel is built on the other side of church. We will use the holy water stoup or a temporary font at the back of the church for the time being.

The cupboards, altar, walls and ceiling will all be restored to their orginal condition, as will the shrine of St Aloysius. Pictures and information are available in the St Philip's Day Donation post.

The whole chapel will be relit, with lighting within the relic cupboards and from the skylight above.
