Marriage
One years notice is required before a wedding can take place. This time is required for the couple to have meetings with Fr Con, for the necessary paperwork to be organised and for marriage preparation to be attended. We can only take bookings for weddings if there is a connection with the parish or if the bride and/or groom live in the parish area. Couples should contact the parish office initially to make an appointment to see Fr Con and a provisional date for the wedding can be made at that time.
Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA)
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is the rite through which adults are received into the Catholic Church.
If you are thinking of becoming a Catholic or would like to find out more about our faith, then please do get in touch by contacting the parish office.
Anointing of the sick
If a relative is unwell at home, the family can contact the parish office to request a visit from Fr Con to administer the Sacrament of the Sick. If the Sacrament is required in an emergency for someone in hospital, one of the hospital staff will contact the priest who is on the hospital emergency rota, Fr Con is on this rota.
Funerals
In order to arrange a Requiem Mass or a service at a crematorium, families should initially contact an undertaker, who will liaise with the parish office to arrange a date and time agreeable to the family and Fr Con, who will then see the family to discuss details of the service itself.
