Water can be taken freely 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. At night there is a night light, but please be careful where you step.

Awarding office/prayers

The amulet awarding office and prayers are open from 9:30 am to 17:00  (last prayer reception at 16:30). Prayers may not be available during certain times of the day if there is a conflict with an event or if the priest is away on a business trip.
