Mass at church is on the days and times shown on the “Times” page. It is face to face and also streamed online on Sundays only via the Facebook – click on the link below (or copy and paste it into your internet browser). If you have never accessed our Mass online before please contact Fr. Joseph for details on how to do this through the church Facebook group. His contact details are on this website (under “Contacts” of course):

The OPEN MEETING (Diocesan Consultation with the Parish) scheduled for this Thursday, 6th November, has been POSTPONED. A revised date is being looked at. The meeting will be about structural problems with the church building which will need sorting over the next 10+ years. There are 2 reports in the “Notices” section under “Events”. One report is from the Diocesan Property Manager on the Repair Work which is 39 pages long and suggests it all needs doing straight away. The other report, in the same section, is our own report carried out by Richard Bate’s company (click link below) which explains the work can be done in stages over the next 10 years without any safety risks. If you wish to know more, please speak to Richard at church on Sundays.
Please turn up at the meeting as the future of the Parish is at risk.

ASSISTED SUICIDE – there is still work to do. The Peers in the House of Lords will be debating The “Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill” – commonly called the Leadbeater Bill or the Assisted Suicide Bill on Fridays from 7th November and discussing the facts from their Select Committee who are hearing from various health and social care bodies as well as Disabled groups about the dangers of the Bill. The Select Committee will meet 20th October to 7th November. THERE ARE TWO THINGS YOU CAN DO:
1. PRAY – PRAY – PRAY
2. WRITE: It is VITAL that you write to Peers about the serious dangers in this Bill – SCROLL DOWN for more information. If you know people who have been helped by Dove House Hospice or the MacMillan Nurses or Marie Curie teams please handwrite letters to Peers recounting your experience and stressing the need for proper Government Funding for Hospices and for those Palliative Care teams, rather than seeing Assisted Suicide as the solution.

We are a Roman Catholic Church located on Beverley Road in Kingston upon Hull. We are just near the start of the dual carriageway, when heading out of the city centre, in the centre of “The Village” accommodation buildings. We are a friendly welcoming church with about 200 on average on Sundays. We have a number of active groups and good fellowship.
Parking is available on Beverley Road (please do not obstruct driveways of neighbouring houses) and on Sundays the car park, linked to The Village accommodation, is available – turn into driveway (which runs between the 2 blocks of buildings) and immediately turn right into the fenced off area.
For those with a disability parking at the door of the church is possible, but this fills up quickly as space is very limited.
Confessions are available before and after any Mass or on request.
ASSISTED SUICIDE: Writing to Peers about the “Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill” – commonly called the Leadbeater Bill or the Assisted Suicide Bill.
There is now an easy way to write a PHYSICAL letter to a Peer at The House of Lords, London, SW1A 0AA. Use:
https://righttolife.org.uk/aspeersletter
Enter your Postcode and it generates a link which will have names of 2 or 3 Peers – the list is randomly generated. The website for “Right to Life” will also generate a standard letter. You can:
EITHER use that letter with the details of the Peers – after amending the computer generated letter to personalise it. Just print it off to post to those Peers – 3 separate envelopes needed, please.
OR better still is to make a note of what points really strike a chord with you and HANDWRITE a letter.
If you have personal experience of a good death in the family or with friends especially those who have been helped by Dove House Hospice or the MacMillan Nurses or Marie Curie teams please talk about that in your letter. Please stress the need for proper Government Funding for those teams, rather than seeing Assisted Suicide as the solution, which will be a real threat to those with disability and to the elderly, as the key driver under the talking (rhetoric) is to save money – we know thaat from the evidence from Canada as their MAiD Law started out very similar to this Bill and deprived communities have a much higher use of MAiD.
If you have no personal experience to share then please amend your letter by picking 2 or 3 of the points from the “A-Z guide of major unresolved problems with the Leadbeater (Assisted Suicide) Bill – Dan Hitchens” that really resonate with you – the Dan Hitchens’ “A-Z document is in the “NOTICES” page, sub-heading “EVENTS” page ( https://stanthonyhull.org.uk/2025/08/19/a-z-guide-of-major-unresolved-problems-with-the-leadbeater-bill-dan-hitchens/ ). There are additional resources in that section, too, and although 2 of the 3 documents are aimed at health care professionals they still have helpful insights for everyone. The Christian Institute/CMF briefing is very helpful to all (online link added to document in case does not display well – e.g. on phones).
If you want to find out more about the Peer you are writing to search for their name on this website and check written contributions and posts they have held – https://members.parliament.uk/members/Lords
PLEASE read / listen to these various resources and then PLEASE act (Micah ch 6 verse 8 applies).
