Amazingly St Michael's Church and St Michael's Church School have not suffered any serious damage from the 7.1 earthquake which happened at 4.35am Saturday 4th September.
However, services on Sunday 5th Sept were cancelled and the John Middleton memorial service has been re-scheduled for Sunday 12th Sept (due to travel difficulties in the immediate earthquake aftermath).
Monday morning Mass was also cancelled and I suspect the Tuesday morning Mass will also be cancelled due to travel difficulties (roads cordoned off).
I understand that Schools are hoping to re-start on Wednesday so I am also assuming that the Church will also be striving to get back to normal at the same time.
