Liturgy
Mass is celebrated twice on a Sunday at 10.45am & 6pm. There are two Masses because of the numbers attending. Fortunately we have Fr Caden living in retirement in the Parish House and he is happy to Celebrate Mass and visits the sick in our Parish Community and in the Community Hospital at Sedgefield. Mass is celebrated at least twice during the week and lay Leaders of the Word and Eucharist act in the Priest's absence as required. These services are very well attended and supported by Parishioners.
Witness
An active "Churches Together" meets regularly and arranges joint services and celebrations. There is a SVP Conference
