Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

As we previously posted, a parishioner of Our Lady of Lebanon Parish has tested positive for COVID-19. The parishioner attended the church on Wednesday 15 July at 5.30 pm, Thursday 16 July at 6 pm and Friday 17 July at 1.30 pm and 6 pm.

To ensure the protection of our parishioners, our clergy, our parish staff and our community we will be closing the Church for a period of two days until Tuesday 21 July 2020 and the situation will be reviewed as things develop.

If you attended Our Lady of Lebanon Cathedral since Wednesday 15 July 2020, and are showing any symptoms of COVID-19, please get tested. 

It is not believed at this stage that the parishioner has contracted COVID-19 at the Parish.

We will keep you informed and updated.

We also remind you not to attend mass at any Church if you are showing symptoms of COVID-19 (click here to refer to document from the Department of Health for more information).

On this feast of St Charbel we ask for his intercession for healing and protection of all those affected by COVID-19.
