SACRAMENTAL PREPARATION

Baptism Preparation Course - if you live and worship in the parish of Kenton and wish to have your child baptised here, you are asked to attend a baptism preparation course.
Please call the parish office to register on the next course. Thank you.

Sunday School - every Sunday at 11.00am in the parish centre during the school year (Sept - July). It is aimed at children of primary school age following the Diocesan Catholic programme 'Walk With Me'. We especially welcome children attending non-Catholic schools and help them to learn about topics that will help them in their Catholic faith journey and prepare them for receiving the sacraments. The groups are fun with story telling, art, teaching through play, interactive conversation and singing. The classes last approx one hour and are held in the parish centre, Shrewsbury Ave (opposite the church) on Sundays at 11am. Please contact the parish office if you wish to register your child.
