Marriage in the Catholic faith is the sacrament that makes Christ and his love present in the world. For couples wishing to marry in our church, one or both people must be a confirmed Catholic. Marriage preparation is conducted at a mutually convenient time for the couple and the parish priest.

Baptism and Baptismal preparation is offered by Fr Andrew and there are opportunities for parents to meet up with others over coffee, after Mass on Sunday.

If you need to arrange a funeral, please contact the parish office as soon as possible.  Our parish priest, Fr Andrew can provide support and advice about the service and the practicalities as well as pastoral support to you and your family.

The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick is celebrated by those experiencing:

serious illness

major surgery

frailty

the struggles of old age

and is offered on request for those at the end of life.  The sacrament reminds us that Christ is with those who are suffering and he does not abandon us.

  Baptised babies and infants are not considered to require this sacrament – not having done anything that needs forgiveness.

Your first point of contact for any of these Sacraments is the Parish Office on office.stjoseph.wetherby@dioceseofleeds.org.uk or phone 01937 582283 and you can also ask about ‘Stole’ fees for Masses, Funerals, Baptisms and Weddings.
