Welcome
to St Mary and St George Catholic Church in Totnes
Our mission is to guide people of all backgrounds into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Celebrating our Faith in Worship
COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Update: Public Mass is celebrated at St Mary and St George on Tuesday 10am, Thursday at 10am and Sunday at 10.30am.
We respectfully ask that you wear a face covering while you are in the church building. This is for the good of all who gather in the Church for Mass as it is an enclosed public space where there are people from differing households who they do not normally meet.
“Being Christian is not the result of an ethical choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a new horizon and a decisive direction.”
“Christians have a duty to proclaim the Gospel without excluding anyone. Instead of seeming to impose new obligations, they should appear as people who wish to share their joy, who point to a horizon of beauty and who invite others to a delicious banquet. ”
“The parish is a community of communities, a sanctuary where the thirsty come to drink in the midst of their journey, and a centre of constant missionary outreach.”
“The parish is the presence of the Church in a given territory, an environment for hearing God’s word, for growth in Christian life, for dialogue, proclamation, charitable outreach, worship and celebration”
Covid: Reminder
Please wear a mask during Mass
Keep the 2 metre distance rule
Please do not use the kneelers (in order to maintain the 2 metre distance)
‘Follow His Holiness – Pope Francis…’
Those who believe themselves to be rich, successful and secure, base everything on themselves and close themselves off from God and their brothers and sisters, whereas those who know they are poor and not self-sufficient remain open to God and their neighbour. And they find joy.
Old age is the phase in life most suited to spreading the joyful news that life is the initiation to a final fulfilment. And the best is yet to come. May God grant us an old age capable of this!
