Parish News and Announcements  

Our young people from St Leonard's will be leading Mass this Sunday 10:30am in St Joseph's. They will be writing the Bidding prayers, reading, taking part in the offertory, supporting Children's Liturgy and playing instruments alongside the choir.


All are welcome to join us for our parish picnic afterwards on St Joseph's school field! (or in the hall if raining)



 

Filmed against the historically vibrant backdrop of Oxford, England, host Eric Metaxas sits down with historian Tom Holland to discuss – from music to marriage to service and science and education – how the West has been transformed by and remains to be utterly affected by Christianity. The two discuss Holland’s bestselling book at length, Dominion: How the Christian Revolution Remade the World. This Socrates in the City conversation took place in July of 2024 in Oxford, England.
