You are warmly invited to join us on Saturday 21st November 2026 at 12.30 pm as we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the consecration of our church . This is a wonderful opportunity to give thanks for our church, for all those who have worshipped here over the past 30 years, and for the many people who have contributed to making it such a special place at the heart of our community. Whether you have been part of the parish for many years or are relatively new, we would love you to come along and share in this special occasion. It will be a time to celebrate, remember and give thanks, as well as to enjoy fellowship together. Following the celebration, we will be sharing a finger buffet and would be very grateful for contributions of food, sandwiches, savoury bites, cakes or other treats would all be very welcome! If you can bring something along, please let Fr Andrew know. Come along, celebrate and be part of this special milestone in the life of our church.

Message from Archbishop Mark O'Toole  "We pray earnestly for our beloved Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV. Now that we know that the recent operation was to remove a cancerous growth, we deepen our sense of solidarity with him and all battling cancer. I ask all parishes and communities across South Wales and Herefordshire to offer prayers for the Holy Father at masses over this next week, and to offer a Votive Mass for Pope Leo XIV this coming weekend."

This Hereford parish is part of the Herefordshire Catholic Deanery within the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Cardiff-Menevia. Our Archbishop, the Most Rev Mark O'Toole was appointed bishop on 20th June 2022 by His Holiness Pope Francis.

About Our Parish

"Dare to dream big dreams..."

Pope Francis teaches us that the youth of today must not live in fear, but must strive to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. This relationship should be a foundation for our younger generation to "dare to dream big dreams" with confidence and without fear.
