Edith Stein in Brighton


If you are in Brighton this Friday night Fr Iain Matthew ODC is speaking on the life and thought of Edith Stein, also known as St Thersa Benedicta of the Cross.
This is an event put on by Fr Paul Turner, for The Vocations Group, that is anyone trying to discern what God wants of them, not necessarily thinking about the priesthood or religious life or marriage.

It takes place in our parish centre next to the Church at 7.30pm, there is Mass at 7pm and Exposition from 6pm, in the Church.


Bring friends!!!

We knew Merryton was fictional, but we suspected Brighton was a real place...
