Masses outside Lerwick

At present there is only one regular Mass outside of Lerwick: Voe Kirk, 5 miles south of Brae. It is hoped to say Mass on the islands (Fetlar, Yell, Unst, Papa Stour, Fair Isle) in the summer months. The priest is also available for Mass anywhere in Shetland where a congregation of at least four can be assured. Please give the priest at least one week's notice of your request so that week day Masses in Lerwick can be rescheduled.

Voe Kirk, North Mainland

Mass is said in the Church of Scotland Voe Kirk every other Sunday at 8.30 am. This Mass serves Catholics in the North Mainland and on Yell. This church is scheduled for closure in 2019 and Masses will soon be transferred to Cullivoe and Brae.
