WELCOME
St Bonaventure’s is a wonderful Parish, which has been serving the people of Bishopston for over a hundred years.

We are a lively and welcoming community who proclaim Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour. We welcome all believers and those of other faiths, or none. Come and see and hear, in person or online, what we are, and what we do.

Our work is in the Lord’s hands. We are merely small and inadequate instruments, “useless servants,” as the Gospel says (Lk 17:10). Yet, if we entrust ourselves to Him, if we remain united to Him, great things happen, precisely through our poverty.
POPE Leo XIV
