THE SACRAMENTS IN ST WININ'S

BAPTISMS: are normally celebrated on a Sunday, either during Mass or in the afternoon at 2.30 p.m. Please give the priest sufficient notice 01294 552276.

WEDDINGS: there is a six month "notification" rule in this Diocese - to allow proper time for preparation for marriage. Generally the notification is longer due to the requirement of Hotels, Photographers, etc. Weddings tend to be lavish affairs, but need not be. The celebration of the Sacrament is the most important element of a Wedding, but it is easily overtaken by other arrangements. Please discuss your requirements with one of the priests who will offer assistance. Arrangements about music, legal requirements, times, rehearsal, etc., need to be made in good time.

CONFESSIONS: The Sacrament of Forgiveness is celebrated publicly during Lent and Advent. Private celebration can be arranged any time 01294 552276 and confessions are generally heard on a Saturday morning after Mass or in the evening from 5.30 p.m. - 6.15 p.m. in both of our churches.
