Alpha

Worldwide lives and communities are being transformed in the name of Jesus through Alpha. 
Alpha runs in Bognor & Slindon parish throughout the year, hundreds within the parish have done the course and many have taken their first steps who don't do church. 

It’s easy to say “I forgive you”, but now, I truly, truly have forgiven them.
I have to say, I can’t describe it, it’s like an overwhelming love in my heart.
That's what Jesus has helped me do through Alpha.

Our history 

Church started in our area in the 7th century, yet due to the reformation in 1534 it became illegal to be a Roman Catholic. Worship in secret continued, and many were martyred for their faith. In 1829 it became legal again to be a Roman Catholic, public Catholic worship returned to the parish in 1865 when St Richard's church in Slindon was opened.
Today's church is around 1,400 people on an average Sunday. We also have a parish primary school, St Mary's and with the other parishes in the area founded St Philip Howard High School, Barnham.
