THE SACRAMENTS
How can we accompany you?
From baptisms to weddings, from visiting the sick to funerals, we are here to accompany you in your Christian journey.
Visits to the Sick
The Sacrament of the Sick provides spiritual help and strength to those who are unwell and is often administered to the housebound.
Mass Intentions
We can offer a Mass for your intentions. It could be for someone who has died, a special anniversary or as a thanksgiving.
Confessions
Celebrate God’s forgiveness. Confessions are scheduled at various times and are also available on request.
Welcome to the catholic parish of headstone lane!
St Theresa of the Child Jesus Church is a small but welcoming parish.
I invite you to explore our parish website to see what we can do for you and how you can contribute to our mission of being a Christ-centred community.
If you are new to the parish, do introduce yourself to me the next time you’re in church as I would like the opportunity to personally welcome you to the parish. Or if there is anything I can do to to support you or your family, please do not hesitate to reach out.

"Doing little things with great love"
You can make a difference at St Theresa’s. Why not take on a ministry, do it with great love and help transform the parish into what it aspires to be?
ALTAR SERVERS get to be close to the action of the Mass and assist Fr Antonio in his duties as Jesus becomes present to us in the Eucharist.
READERS (or lectors) exercise their responsibility by mediating the presence of Christ. God speaks to the assembly through them as they read the First and Second Readings, Responsorial Psalm and bidding prayers..
EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS assist Fr Antonio in distributing the Body and the Blood of Christ at Mass, especially at Sunday Masses and other special occasions.
CATECHISTS are volunteers who pass on the faith. We need catechists for all the different programmes we have in the parish such as First Holy Communion, Confirmation and RCIA.
MUSIC in the Catholic parish of Headstone Lane plays a key role in our praise and worship of Almighty God. Our worship is magnified when we have music and singing in the liturgy!
Why
These are just some of the questions Catholics are asked all the time and many Catholics don’t know the answers themselves. Discover the reasons for our faith right here.
