The Catholic Parish of Brighton & Hove was inaugurated on Sunday 14 September, with Mass at St John the Baptist Church, Kemptown, celebrated by Bishop Richard Moth and priests and deacons from across the new parish.
To view a short film of the Mass held on Saturday 20 September please click here.
Sycamore at St Peter’s Sycamore Plus is a wonderful new series of Sycamore films presented by Father Stephen Wang – all twelve focused on prayer ‘Ways of Praying’. We will gather on Wednesday for a drink and a chat from 7:30pm until 8pm then enjoy our usual film and discussion from 8pm to 9pm finish. All are most welcome especially if you haven’t been able to join us on Mondays.
You are welcome to join this friendly group for some good conversation and light refreshment.
