Below you will find details of both our regular and occasional services, together with information about special events some of which are intended to raise much needed funds to help with the maintenance and day to day running of our churches and to ensure that we remain active in mission within our communities. Because we are a mission area that includes St Leonard's Scawsby, St. St. Philip and St. James New Bentley and All Saints Arksey the services throughout the week are spread throughout that same area. There is a Mass at each of the churches in the Mission Area on a Sunday. With effect from 5th January 2026 Father David D'Silva will leave to take up a new post in the Diocese of Blackburn and the parish will be in interregnum until a new priest is appointed. Throughout the interregnum weekday services will normally be limited to one mass at Arksey on Wednesday morning and one at St Leonard's on Friday morning together with a service at each of the three churches in the mission area on Sunday morning. Details of the times and location of services and events are shown on the 'About us' page.
