Welcome to St Augustine's, a Catholic Parish in the centre of Darlington. No matter who you are, you are welcome in our parish! We are here to give glory to God through prayer, song, and action. We are blessed to have a beautiful church where we gather most days, particularly on Sunday, to listen to the Word of God and to celebrate the sacraments. God calls us to share our faith with others which we do through preaching, faith formation and sacramental preparation. We also share our faith by being here for those in need and accompanying those who struggle. Through a variety of social events, and making space for everyone, our community becomes a growing, caring and expanding family. You are welcome to join us!
This Weekend we celebrate Pentecost.

Pastoral Strategy Process
Our Parish Return Form has now been submitted to the Diocese. It can be viewed here.
Baptismal candidates made their Baptismal Promises, professing faith in the resurrection of Jesus and in the Holy Trinity and we all renewed our own baptismal profession of faith.
There were four Baptisms during our Easter Vigil.
Twelve adults were received into full communion with the Catholic Church and eighteen people were confirmed.
