Our Lady of Lourdes

The first sacrament, washing us into the life of Christ and welcoming a new member into the Church family. We baptise infants and adults; speak to us to begin.

The sealing of baptism with the gift of the Holy Spirit. Young people and adults are prepared together before the bishop confirms them.

Children prepare to receive the Eucharist for the first time, usually in Year 3. Our preparation programme runs through the year alongside the parish school.

The sacrament of God's mercy, where sins are confessed and forgiven. Confession is heard each week, and by appointment whenever you need it.

Two people are joined before God as a sign of Christ's love for the Church. Please contact the parish at least six months before your intended date.

The Church's prayer for healing and strength in serious illness or old age. Call the parish at any time; we will come to a home or hospital.
