Parish Patronal Feast Day

Sunday 8th December
The Solemnity of the
Immaculate Conception
of the Blessed Virgin Mary
 
(The Immaculate Conception by Bartolome Murillo)
 
This year our patronal feast day falls on a Sunday in Advent and so we cannot celebrate on the day itself but will celebrate on Monday 9th December with Mass at 10 am. Children from Year Six of St John Fisher Catholic Academy will be joining us to add their voices in song to our celebration.
