25th July - Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C)
Niedzielne Czytania i Ewangelia po Polsku
Welcome to our Website!
"...JESUS CHRIST, THE BEGINNING AND THE END...
ALL TIME BELONGS TO HIM... AND ALL THE AGES..."
These words on the doors of the Church porch express perfectly the purpose of our parish. We are a community centred
round the Lord Jesus.
Saint Francis' Parish in the heart of Maidstone was founded in 1859 and since then has been the heart of the
Catholic community in the Maidstone area.
From it was founded the parishes of Saint Thomas More, West Malling; Holy Family, Park Wood; and Saint Peter's
Bearsted.
In addition to the mother church there are Mass Centres at St Luke's, Preston Hall, and at St Mary's Anglican Church
at Nettlestead.
Today the faith which inspired its foundation almost 150 years ago continues to find its expression in a lively community
bringing together people of many races all united by their love of God. It is this love which calls us all to work
together to build up our community and to care for all in need.
I would like to welcome all who visit our new website and hope you share something of our vision for the future of the
church and parish.
Canon John Clark - Parish Priest
