Parish Board of Announcements

Priests will only go into the hospital in response to a request from the Hospital switchboard or ward staff. Anyone in the hospital that requires a visit from a priest should please go through the nurse or switchboard. This will be in emergency only. There will be no Holy Communion rounds until further notice.

We understand the challenges and disruption COVID 19 is having on the quality of life and mental health.  We offer support in managing anxiety as we leave lockdown; coping with working from home; uncertainty in a changing society; social distancing and loneliness.

We are now able to offer Counselling for Men by Men!

Our regular quality assurance reviews guarantee high standards of service by our practitioners.

You do not have to go through this alone.

In preparation towards the reopening of our churches, we still need volunteers who would serve as ushers during Mass and cleaners who would help to clean the church after every use. Volunteers must be below 70 years and without underlying health conditions. If you can volunteer, please email or call the Parish Priest.

We are hoping to open St Mary Magdalene church for private prayers once the requirements are met and the bishop has given his permission. When we open we shall let everyone know the days and times it will be open.

Bishop Ralph has appointed Fr John Adikwu CM the Parish Priest of Sacred Heart Balby and St Mary’s Edlington. He will be moving in the coming weeks. We thank Fr John for all he did while with us.

We thank our Parish society of St Vincent de Paul for all they are doing. They have some vouchers to give out to those in need. You can contact the society  in the strictest confidence on 07598078758 or by Email: [email protected]
