Part of Catholic Leamington

St. Joseph's, Whitnash

Our mission is to support and mobilise all in the diocese to become true missionary disciples

Welcome

You are very welcome here! Whether you are taking a first step to find our parish community or are a regular looking for the latest updates we hope you find the site helpful. New people are moving into the area as housing is built and maybe you are just trying to figure out which is your nearest church, or where the official boundaries are set between local parishes. When you come to the church you will receive a warm welcome and find it a prayerful place, as we are able to draw close to Jesus as he is close to us in the Blessed Sacrament in our tabernacle and in our celebrations of the Eucharist together.

An Important Announcement

Please pray for the Repose of the Soul of our much loved former Parish Priest, Fr Brian Boyle.

With deep sadness I inform you that Fr. Brian Boyle SCJ, who served here at St. Joseph’s Whitnash for 23 years, died at around 10pm on 9 December.

Fr Brian's Funeral Mass will be on Tuesday 31st December at 11am, at Church of The Sacred Heart and St Catherine, Droitwich WR9 8AZ

We are hoping to arrange a coach for Tuesday 31st, leaving at 9.30am - if that is possible so close to Christmas. Otherwise we will organise lifts from St Joseph's for all who would like to go to Droitwich for his Funeral Mass. Can people please add their names to the list at church.

Our Church

St Joseph’s parish is part of Catholic Leamington, a grouping of three churches where we cooperate and share together for the benefit of each and all. Together we seek to put into action our Diocesan Vision and seek to find the ways to live out Pope Francis’s Synodal Vision of Walking Together.

Support for the parish

Would you be able to give to support our parish? May God bless your generosity!

Sacraments

From the beginning to end of life God gives us special grace through the Sacraments and the Church gives us many ways to celebrate and mark life events.

Safeguarding

St Joseph's operates in accordance with Statutory Safeguarding Guidance and the National and Archdioceses policies and procedures at all times.

Livestreaming

Being here is always best, but all of our services are also available online.

We are a community

A conversation around what the Church can offer you is the best idea - so please make contact about where you are and what you need.

Our Vision

The Synod focuses on many of the same areas we are hoping to renew through the Diocesan Vision, and so we are using the outcomes of the Synodal process to continue to grow as a diocese that is faithful to the mission entrusted to us by Jesus Christ - full of missionary disciples who work together co-responsibly in vibrant communities of faith, joyful in their service of God and neighbour.
