For all the young men who are increasingly finding faith, fellowship and a sense of belonging in the Catholic Church, St Joseph is a spiritual patron and model for laymen everywhere.
Bishop Marcus is founding the Oratory of St Joseph: a new group for young Catholic laymen aged between 21 and 35 across both the Diocese of Leeds and the Diocese of Middlesbrough.
The group’s organisers and Spiritual Directors are our Leeds priests, Frs Benjamin Hilton and Marc Pitson and Middlesbrough priest, Fr Richard Marsden, who have put together a monthly programme of Thursday evening talks on a variety of arts, science and religious subjects, with time for prayer, supper, socialising and Benediction.
If you are are a young man between 21 and 35 who would appreciate an evening each month to pray and socialise with like-minded others in your age group, then the Oratory of St Joseph is for YOU!
Contact benjamin.hilton@dioceseofleeds.org.uk for more details – or simply turn up at Hinsley Hall in Headingley LS6 2BX at 6.30pm on 26 February. Supper is provided free of charge.
