Keeping up with the Coronavirus
About the COVID-19 Corner
In this time of major — but hopefully temporary — adjustment, we decided to create a one-stop shop to house important updates, information and announcements. We also recognised that a lot of us have already been sending around articles, videos and other resources, so we’ve created a section for these to be displayed here too.

CONFESSION BOOKINGS
Dear Everyone,
Lowana is now open to Cooperators for confession at 15 Higgins Street. Please take note…it’s 15 not 11. Below are some reminders that are to be observed in view of the current situation:
1. Book a time via the booking sheet. Every person is allocated 10 minutes.
Available slots:
- Thursdays 2-3pm
- Thursday 7.45-8.30pm – this week only
- Saturday 11am-1pm
2. If you cannot make it, it would be good to update the booking sheet.
3. After confession, let the next person know through a text message that you have finished to avoid any delays. It would be good to let the person before and after you know if you are cancelling your slot.
4. Please be discreet when going to confession. We do not want to attract attention from the neighbours. So kindly avoid overcrowding the area.
5. Park in designated parking bays but avoid parking along the driveway of 15 Higgins because the priest parks there.
