What's On

In addition to the liturgy of the Eucharist celebrated at our weekday and Sunday Masses, we organise courses to deepen our understanding of our faith during the seasons of Advent and Lent, and parish retreats at the end of those seasons to prepare for the feasts of Christmas, Good Friday and Easter.

We also hold a number of informal prayer groups and meetings. For information on these please contact the parish office.

In addition we organise fundraising events for the parish, for example our parish stall at the Goudhurst Village Fête in June and the Autumn Fair in the Goudhurst Village Hall in November.

Visitors

Welcome to the Parish of Sacred Heart Church, Goudhurst and St Barnabas Church, Hawkhurst. We are very happy to have you and we hope you will feel at home here.

We hope that while you're with us you'll be able to attend Mass at one of our two churches. Our dedicated and vibrant welcome team and parishioners will be happy to greet you and share our love and joy in this Christian family.

On the weekend there is Mass at the Sacred Heart in Goudhurst on Saturday evening at 5:30pm, and on Sunday morning at 10:30. Mass is celebrated at St Barnabas in Hawkhurst at 8:30am on Sunday mornings. For locations and parking details see the Mass times page. If you're here on the first Sunday of the month we'd love to meet you over tea or coffee after the Sunday masses.

Weekday masses are celebrated on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday - see the Mass times page for more details.

If you would like to speak to Fr Ethelbert or Lizzi, the Parish Secretary, while visiting, please contact the Presbytery using the details on the Contact us page.

Once more, we welcome you with the love of the Risen Jesus.
