Welcome to St Mary’s Catholic Church, Brownedge, Bamber Bridge, in the Diocese of Salford.
We are a parish community serving the people of our local area and beyond. On this website we hope you find lots of information about the life of our parish and the Catholic Church throughout the world.
We will be delighted for you to come along to participate in our prayerful and joyful liturgies; we seek to give nourishment to the spiritual, pastoral, human and intellectual needs of families, individuals and the whole community.
As Our Lord Jesus says in his teaching: “I have come that they may have life and have it to the full”. (John 10:10)
In all we say and do we seek to be formed as the wonderful people who God created us to be.
