St. Wilfrid's Church: a praying and sharing church

At St  Wilfrid’s, we pray for each other and for the community and the world around us - in our services, in  PCC meetings and at other events as well as at home or during the working day.

During our services
We pray for the world, the church and ourselves - including our leaders and those we know to be in need; stories in the news and those affected by them; and for the work and worship of the church in serving God and others.

Prayer for those in need
We pray for people slowly recovering from, or knowing they have to live with, a painful condition who would be grateful for our prayers. They are usually housebound. If you know of people suitable for this list, please contact our Parish Administrator Hilary Irwin on 01243 841275 or email

The Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession)
If you would like to make a Confession, you can contact Fr Andrew (01243 821965) who would be happy to listen to this by appointment. Alternatively, you can turn up without an appointment for spiritual direction, prayer or confession on a Saturday afternoon in the Lady Chapel from 4.30pm till 5.00pm.
