About the Parish

We are located right on the edge of the busy A40, Eastbound: its six lanes of polluting noise and dirt in sharp contrast with the peace and tranquillity of the Church. In a way, this contrast is symbolic of the role of the Church in the community as a sign of God’s presence among us.

The size of our Church and its peculiar location can be deceptive to the passer-by, for very few can imagine how busy and active our parish is. Today we have a cosmopolitan congregation of about 400 parishioners who come to Mass each Sunday representing practically every nation of the world.

Our Purpose

To Proclaim the “Good News” of Jesus Christ as Missionary Disciples of a Prophetic and Compassionate Parish, nourished by the Word of God and the Eucharist, enlightened by the Gospel Principle of a preferential option for those most in need, as we journey towards the definitive “Kingdom of God.”

  • Parish Priest: Fr. Peter Shekelton
  • Parish Office: Run by a team of volunteers
  • Parish Safeguarding Reps: Maura Lyons and Magda Lyons
