Marriage
Please contact the Parish Office to book the church for your wedding ceremony, and to arrange a meeting with the priest. 
This should preferably be at least six months before the wedding.

​Becoming a Catholic
If you are considering becoming a Catholic, please contact the Parish Centre to arrange a meeting with one of our priests.

Anointing of the Sick
If a family member, friend or neighbour is sick in hospital, Whiddon or at home and would appreciate the Sacrament of Anointing, please call the parish office.

Home or Hospital Visits
If you, or someone you know, would like a visit from one of our priests, please call the Parish Office.
Our priests conduct monthly home visits to those who are unable to attend Mass.  
Due to Privacy regulations, our local hospital does not provide us with names of patients, so we rely on family members to let us know if there is someone who needs a visit.

Funerals
Your funeral director will contact us to arrange a time for a funeral in our church, or a graveside service.   When this is done, you will need to contact the Parish Office to arrange a time to speak with the priest about the hymns and readings you wish to include in the funeral.
