Our Diocesan Anniversary!

On 29th September AD 1850,
with Pope Pius VI’s papal
bull, Universalis Ecclesiae,
the Catholic Hierarchy was
restored to England (after
the Reformation) and with it
the Diocese of Northampton.

Jubilee Year 2025 - Pilgrims of Hope:

The Communications Team of the Diocese would like
to know how each parish is observing this Jubilee Year;
if you have any suggestions for how our two parishes
might do this, please contact the Parish Office ASAP!

Our Lady of Walsingham Rosary Group:

This parish group meets each Wednesday immediately
after the 9:30am Mass in the ‘Holy House’. Through
meditating on the key events or ‘mysteries’ in the life
of Jesus, we follow in His footsteps, as companions of
His Blessed Mother on the contemplative journey of
the Holy Rosary. Humbly, we ask Our Lady to join her
prayers with ours, as we offer each ‘mystery’ for the
prayer intentions left in the ‘Holy House’. If you would
like to join with others in praying the Rosary, please
come to the ‘Holy House’ after Mass. We meet for
about half an hour, and everyone is most welcome to
join in this time of contemplative prayer. Coordinator:
Janet Northing. Our Lady of Walsingham: Pray for us.
✝ 22nd January the Rosary will be at 10:00am and be
followed by refreshments. → Mass is at 5:30pm.
