Volunteering & Donations
PLEASE
In these difficult times the Parish needs extra volunteers to help with the clean after each Mass. It means staying a little longer after attending Mass to help prepare for the next Mass .
If you are able to help then please ask after Mass or contact the Parish Office.
Please donate to the weekly collection by clicking here.
Welcome to Our Parish
Here at St. Joseph’s we grow as “stewards” of God’s gifts to us, we try to recognize the many ways in which God has blessed us and to respond by giving thanks not only with our words but by the way we celebrate our faith and live our lives. This enables us to deepen our understanding of what the Gospel message means in our lives today.
Fr Chris Whelan
Parish Priest
I am always happy to welcome new people to this large vibrant Catholic community in Basingstoke so if you are able to visit us in person and perhaps join us for one of our Masses then please introduce yourself to me afterwards.
Fr Gaston Forbah
Assistant Priest
Ordained priest for the Archdiocese of Bamenda, Cameroon. Presently joined as assistant priest at Basingstoke and student at University of Southampton.
Deacon Patrick O'Connell
Permanent Deacon
I was ordained Deacon in June 2007 and have since served St Joseph’s Catholic Community. As a Deacon I preside over Baptisms, Funerals, Marriage ceremonies and pray with those who are in need, in addition to assisting the priest sacramentally together with duties such as teaching/preaching and leading liturgically in his absence.
First holy communion
We are excited and delighted to invite baptised children in our parish to participate in St Joseph's ONLINE First Holy Communion programme.
