A message from our Parish Priest
It is always good to be able to welcome you to our website and particularly at this troubled time when we all feel a little vulnerable. I was sent this picture of Christ the Healer comforting our world and thought it would be good to share it with you.
Even though our Church building is closed we are of course maintaining parish life during these difficult times - see our Webcam page for online Mass and prayers. If you would like the Sacrament of Reconciliation please let me know and we can make an appointment. Naturally we will observe social distancing.
You can find a useful guide to "Prayers when there is no Mass" here and there is also a short video on how to prepare for Mass through a live stream here.
For those Parishioners who normally give in the collection at Mass and wish to help the Parish at this time, an online donation page to allow you to donate to the Parish can be found here. Please be aware that a minimum donation of £5 is requested if giving in this way. The page can also be used to set up a regular monthly donation, and you can also Gift Aid your donation to help the Parish further. If you want to Gift Aid your donation, please tick the box shown on the screen even if you have previously completed a Gift Aid Declaration form in favour of the Parish for regular giving made by Offertory Envelope or Standing Order. Thank you for your support.
May God bless you and yours, Fr. Peter.

A prayer from the Presidents of the Bishop's Conference of Europe
God our Father, Creator of the world, almighty and merciful, out of love for us You sent your Son into the world as the doctor of our souls and our bodies, look upon your children who, in this difficult time of confusion and dismay in many regions of Europe and the world, turn to you seeking strength, salvation and relief, deliver us from illness and fear, heal our sick, comfort their families, give wisdom to our rulers, energy and reward to our doctors, nurses and volunteers, and eternal life to the dead. Do not abandon us in the moment of trial but deliver us from all evil. We ask this of Thee, who with the Son and the Holy Spirit, live and reign for ever and ever. Amen.
