Who we are
The first Mass was celebrated in Balham on 13th June 1890 (the Feast of the Sacred Heart). Since that time, the regular celebration of the Mass and the Sacraments have been at the heart of our parish community, and they continue to be so today.
At the present time, much has changed in parish life and in the world, due to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. But the life of prayer goes on, and continues to hold our parish together.
To keep up with developments in parish life – which can be rapid and sudden in the current situation – we very much encourage you to subscribe to our regular parish newsletter, which you can do by clicking on the link below.
Thank you for your visit! We hope to see you again soon.
