Mass

Sunday 12:30pm (Extraordinary Form), 6:00 pm. Various times during the week
The Sacrifice of the Mass is the centre of all that we do and all that we are here. Mass is offered in our Chapel every Sunday in term-time at 6.00 pm, and throughout the week. Mass is usually celebrated on most days throughout the week. The Mass is also offered in the Extraordinary Form by request of the Bishop at 12:30 pm on Sundays and on the First Fridays of the month.

Talks

Throughout the term, the Chaplaincy organises a series of thought-provoking talks revolving around a wide variety of topics on all things Catholic - be they theology, history or current affairs! These talks are open to the public, and lend themselves to a question-and-answer session at the end of each of them.

Adoration & Benediction

​Thursday 6:15 - 6:45 pm in term-time
We build our life as a Chaplaincy on the source and summit of the Christian life - Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament of the Altar. The Real Presence takes centre stage during the Consecration in the Mass, but that sacred moment is specially prolonged in Eucharistic Adoration, where we keep our Lord company. Adoration begins at 6:15 to 6:45 pm on Thursday evenings, ending with Benediction.

Confession

Typically 30 minutes before Mass, or upon request.
Confession (also known as the Sacrament of Penance or the Sacrament of Reconciliation) opens us to receive the guarantee of God's mercy, and reconciles us with God, the Church and our neighbours. Fr. Rupert hears Confessions in the sacristy before each Mass, and by request. Click the button below to send an email and schedule an appointment.

Lectio Divina

Wednesday 6:30pm in term-time
Prayerful reading of the Bible is an ancient form of prayer that God is using again in a powerful and moving way. Our Lectio Divina Group meets to read the Sunday Gospel in a spirit of prayer, listening, and community. Why not bring a Bible, come along and join us?

Rosary

​Sunday 5:30pm in term-time
The Rosary is the most-beloved devotion of Catholics throughout the ages to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Through its recitation, one contemplates upon events in the life of Christ and His blessed Mother. Will you come and pray with our Lady in her special psalter?

Catechesis

Sunday 4:30pm in term-time
We have the Men's Group and Women's Group meeting in term-time on Sundays at 4:30pm. We discuss various topics, such as Catholic teaching and spirituality, in a laid-back atmosphere to solidify our understanding of the faith.

Vocations

Second Tuesday of the month in term-time
The Possenti Group is an informal time of discussion and prayer for students who are exploring the possibility of a vocation to the priesthood. We meet every second Tuesday of the month in term-time after the 6:15 pm Mass for some wine and cheese, a talk on some aspect of the priesthood, and then conclude with prayer.

Works of Mercy

Turning our foundation of prayer into missionary action in the community we engage with numerous projects in the city which work with the homeless, refugees and many other causes. Details are available on the CathSoc Facebook group.
