Our Faith
The Catholic faith is central to our worship and our continual spiritual journey as children of God. To help our members continue their journey in faith, the Parish has a wide range of Sacramental Programmes for young and old - from Baptism to First Holy Communion and Confirmation.
Called to Baptism?
I am not baptised (christened) but deep within me there is a sense that I am being drawn to something beyond myself and my present experience. Please click here if you would like to discuss this further with Father Pat – no strings.
Or if you would like to explore further online
whether or not this is an invitation from God to share
His life with you. In particular, if would like to know

To help develop your prayer life during the week, you can also access the latest Sunday Readings and a selection of Daily Prayers.
For visitors, new members or those seeking answers, read more about the Roman Catholic faith in the Faith Overview section.
Year of Faith

The Year of Faith is an opportunity for each one of us to reflect on and renew our enthusiasm for our faith so that we can profess it, share it with others, and lead people to Jesus Christ.
