Creating the New Parish of the Holy Family: Strengthening Community, Deepening Faith, and Serving Others

The Vision for the New Parish of the Holy Family

We, the churches in Maidenhead, Twyford, Wargrave, Cookham, and Culham, along with the convent, are excited to come together and create the new parish of the Holy Family. This collaboration is driven by our shared vision to strengthen our community, deepen our faith, and serve the people of our region.

Uniting our Churches

By merging our churches into one parish, we aim to foster a sense of unity and solidarity among our congregations. We believe that by pooling our resources, talents, and spiritual energy, we can create a vibrant and inclusive community that will support and inspire each other on our spiritual journeys.

This union will also provide us with the opportunity to streamline our administrative processes and optimize our services. By working together, we can ensure that our resources are utilized efficiently and effectively, allowing us to better serve the needs of our parishioners and the wider community.

Deepening our Faith

The creation of the new parish of the Holy Family will provide us with a platform to deepen our faith and strengthen our spiritual lives. Through joint worship services, Bible studies, retreats, and other spiritual activities, we will have the opportunity to learn from one another, share our experiences, and grow in our relationship with God.

Additionally, the new parish will enable us to offer a wider range of ministries and programs to cater to the diverse needs and interests of our community. Whether it’s youth groups, outreach initiatives, or support for the elderly, we are committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment where everyone can find a place to belong and contribute.

Serving our Community

As followers of Christ, we are called to serve others and make a positive difference in the world around us. The new parish of the Holy Family will be a catalyst for community engagement and social action. We will actively seek opportunities to address the needs of the marginalized, promote justice, and provide support to those facing challenges.

Our collective efforts will extend beyond the walls of our churches as we collaborate with local organizations, charities, and community groups. By working together, we can have a greater impact and be a beacon of hope and love in our region.

We are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead as we embark on this journey to create the new parish of the Holy Family. We invite all members of our congregations, as well as the wider community, to join us in this endeavor. Together, we can build a strong and vibrant spiritual community that embraces diversity, fosters love and compassion, and transforms lives.
