Are you interested in joining the Catholic Church? God has you in the palm of His hand and has a plan for you. You might be a wife or a husband and regularly go to Mass or take the children, but you yourself don’t take part, or you might be someone who’s been to a few Catholic weddings, Baptisms and similar and want to know more…? Alternatively, you might already be Catholic but have missed a Sacrament like Confirmation? You might just want to deepen your Faith, after all, it offers the beautiful treasures of “The Word” to see you through life and into eternal life. The Word is “Christ” and Christ, is yesterday, today and forever.

Make contact with the parish catechism team or contact the clergy.

You are welcome and warmly encouraged and will be supported by the clergy, catechists and parish community we are praying for you!
