• LIVE WEB CAM IN CHURCH!!
  
  St Ignatius Church has a live web cam!  It is on 24 hours a day, seven days a week and
  can be viewed and heard from anywhere in the wide world.  (Not much to see at night though!)
  It is particularly attractive for those being married at St Ignatius, who have relatives or
  friends who are interstate, overseas, or not well enough to attend.
  
  You just jump on to the parish web page and click at the
  St Ignatius Live Cam button, and your watching and listening whatever is
  happening on the sanctuary of the church.
  
  Watch the exchange of marriage vows, or view the baptism taking place,
  or follow the funeral service or regular Sunday mass. 
  Just tell your friends or family when to tune in to the St Ignatius Web Cam,
  and they can follow the action!
