About Us

Who We Are

St Mary's is a Roman Catholic Church located in the Preston Village area of Brighton, East Sussex, adjacent to the wonderful Preston Park grounds. We are a community of Christians of the Roman Catholic tradition of the Diocese of Arundel and Brighton.


Originally founded in 1910, our church is honoured to serve our Parish community to this day.

If you’re reading this, it’s likely you’re looking for a church. We’d love for you to be part of our community at St Mary's Preston Park Parish.

 

We are:

  • A people called by Jesus Christ to be a caring and compassionate family

  • A people called to extend Christ's love to all who come to Him in Faith, Hope and Love

Our mission is to share the love of God with all, making disciples of Jesus and serving the community after his example.

We are part of Divine Renovation UK movement, focused on evangelisation, hospitality, following the prompts of the Holy Spirit.

We prioritize simple and clear opportunities to help people take their next steps toward Christ...together!

 

Simply put, everyone is welcome at St Mary's.

Meet Our Leadership Team

The priest can’t change the culture of the parish as a lone ranger, nor is it wise to make big decisions without healthy and constructive feedback. He needs the collective support, gifts, and investment of a team of key people who share the same vision and passion. Whether he has a paid parish staff or not, a leadership team is crucial to have shared responsibility, ownership, and accountability for the vision and plans for evangelisation

The focus of this team is executing the day-to-day implementation of the vision.
