The Sacrament of Mercy

Confession

There is no sin too great, no absence too long. Confession is the sacrament of God's mercy, where we are met not with judgement but with welcome, forgiveness and peace.

If it has been a while, please do not be anxious. Father will gently guide you through every step. You may also request Confession outside our scheduled times — simply ring the parish office or speak with Father after Mass.

Every Saturday, 5:00 PM – 5:45 PM · Or by appointment

Time With the Lord

Eucharistic Adoration

Adoration is simply this: time spent in the company of the Lord, truly present in the Blessed Sacrament. There are no special words to learn and no prayers required — just stillness, and a heart open to His.

Whether you come for five minutes or a full hour, you will leave lighter. Many parishioners say it is the quietest, most restorative hour of their week.

First Friday of every month, 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM · With Benediction

Your First Mass

What to Expect

A gentle, jargon-light walk-through for anyone joining us for the first time.

Arrive a Little Early

Doors open thirty minutes before each Mass. There's no need to dress up — come as you are. A welcomer at the door will offer you a hymn book and Mass leaflet.

Take a Seat Anywhere

Sit wherever you feel comfortable. The front rows are not reserved. If you'd rather stay near the back to follow along quietly, that's perfectly fine.

Follow Along Gently

Mass has four parts: a welcome, readings from Scripture, the Eucharistic prayer, and a closing blessing. If you're not Catholic or not yet receiving Communion, you are warmly invited to come forward for a blessing — simply cross your arms over your chest.

Stay for Tea

After Sunday Mass, please join us in the parish hall for tea and coffee. It's the easiest way to meet people, and there is no pressure to stay long.
