Welcome....Our Parish strives to be a welcoming community that lives the Good News of the Gospel in its actions and programs. Whether you are looking for a new parish home, just visiting us for a short time, returning to the practice of your Catholic faith or are just wanting to find out more about the Catholic Church, our parish community are most happy to have you with us.
Through our parish we have the opportunity to grow spiritually and put our faith into action through giving some of our gifts of time and talents. We hope you will share your time and talents with us, your Parish family, friends and community, by participating in our various ministries, social services, activities and spiritual experiences. There is a wide range of activities (described in the Groups & Ministries section of this website), through which you may be able to do this. The amount of time and effort needed varies and there is something to suit many different life situations. There may be something that interests you. The opportunity is there for you to enrich your spiritual life in a practical way and to also increase your sense of belonging to our community. Please do not hesitate to contact the Parish Office if you need more information. May God Bless you and your Family, Fr Mark Percival, Parish Priest |
