Ministries / Volunteering

Giving your parish a helping hand

How is God calling you to serve the Catholic parish of Headstone Lane, Harrow? Being part of any community is about getting involved and churches are no exception.

Getting involved will mean you get the most out of church life and deepen your own relationship with God and other people as a result. There are many ways of getting involved in the parish. You can volunteer to be a catechist, church cleaner, or assist with catering for parish events. A key area for volunteering is the liturgy. We are dedicated to making our Sunday worship as good as it can possibly be. 

Why not submit a volunteering form to tell us how you can help? We rely heavily on people like you — we are always looking for people who will share their talents with the Lord and with their brothers and sisters.
