Encounter 2025 on 1st February 2025

Encounter 2025 is a Diocesan wide programme between Easter and  Pentecost.  It will empower parishioners to have a better understanding of the Holy Spirt, a closer relationship with God and to be able to explain the reasons for their faith. Many people have said that they find it difficult to explain why they are Catholic or even a Christian. Grandparents are sad that their children and grandchildren no longer attend Mass.  All are welcome to our initial planning event on 1^st February 2025 between 9.30 and 1 pm at St Bernadettes, 731 Wells Rd, Bristol, BS14 9HU.
