First Sunday Mass Tips
Arrive early: so you’ll have enough time to park your car and discover the facilities.
Visit the kids corner: feel free to visit the rooms on the ground floor where the Children’s Liturgy will take place, as well as the cabin where they can play after Mass.
Discover the building: you’ll find noticeboards with useful information! Visit the large hall where tea and coffee will be served after Mass. You’ll find bathrooms on your way.
If your first Mass is online: check out the tips on the dedicated page.
Answers to some of your questions

Absolutely yes! We welcome everyone at Christ the King.
I’m not a Catholic, can I still attend?
Yes, you can attend and you will be made to feel very welcome.
I don’t live locally, is it still okay to come to the Mass?
All are welcome, from wherever you live.
