Welcome to the parish of
  Our Lady of Lourdes, Sawston UK

The parish of Our Lady of Lourdes is based in Sawston, just south of Cambridge, England.

This parish has been an active centre of Catholicism in this region for a very long time. Sawston Hall was for many centuries the focal point of Catholic activity and remained steadfast during the troubled times of the Counter-Reformation.

The present church is nearly 50 years old and has had four resident parish priests. Now we want to build a new church. Read about it by clicking on the New Church Fund section.

You can read more about this and related topics by clicking on the History section.

We have recently said goodbye to our last parish priest Father David Hennessy who has been relocated to Felixstowe. Father Raf Esteban is our new parish administrator, based out of Our Lady and English Martyrs in Cambridge. Due to the transition, some of the sections of this website are in the process of being updated. We apologise for any inconvenience – please visit us again soon for updates.
