With One Voice

The Catholic Parishes of St Joseph’s Blaydon, Our Lady of Lourdes Chopwell, St Joseph's Highfield and St Anne's Winlaton

WELCOME

This website is currently under construction as our four parishes develop their new relationship and partnership.

Our four parishes strive to serve God and his people in the Tyne and Derwent Valleys.  We believe that our faith can help to make us better people, caring for others while on our journey to our heavenly home. We respect and keep safe all who come to join us, what ever their circumstances. As the Catholic Church, we welcome everyone, inspired by the words of Pope Francis in his encyclical Fratelli Tutti: 

Of the counsels (St) Francis offered, I would like to select the one in which he calls for a love that transcends the barriers of geography and distance, and declares blessed all those who love their brother “as much when he is far away from him as when he is with him”.  In his simple and direct way, Saint Francis expressed the essence of a fraternal openness that allows us to acknowledge, appreciate and love each person, regardless of physical proximity, regardless of where he or she was born or lives.”

Year of Prayer 2024

In preparation for the 2025 Jubilee Year ‘Pilgrims of Hope, 2024 has been designated a Year of Prayer by Pope Francis.  The Holy Father has asked that 2024 be year of prayer, as a preparatory year for the Jubilee.  In preparation for the Jubilee, dioceses are invited to promote initiatives to remind people of the centrality of both individual prayer and community prayer.
