WELCOME

Welcome to our parish website, here at St Vincent de Paul we strive to unit our local community in our weekly masses as well as the many services we provide through our ministries. Our parish comes under the Diocese of Brentwood, led by our Bishop, The Rt Rev Alan Williams.

Saint Vincent’s Catholic Primary school is also part of our parish. If you would like to know more about the deep and vibrant history of our Patron Saint, Church and Catholic faith, please select the HISTORY tab on the top menu screen. There is also our NEWSLETTER, CALENDAR and EVENTS section where you can find the latest updates, you may also wish to DONATE to our Parish.

People visit St Vincent, Becontree, for its rich historical and spiritual significance. As the first Catholic place of worship on the Becontree Estate, it holds a unique place in the history of the Catholic Church in the area. The church played a foundational role in establishing the Catholic community in Becontree and Dagenham, serving as the "mother parish" for several other parishes in the region.

DEAR LORD - GUIDE US ON OUR JOURNEY AS PILGRIMS OF HOPE

May the God of peace make you perfect and holy; and may your spirit, life and body be kept blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

WEEKDAY MASS

Reflection of Readings - Sunday 5th April. Easter Sunday Year A.

Easter stands at the pinnacle of the Christian liturgical year, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, a cornerstone of faith promising redemption and eternal life to humanity.

At the heart of this jubilant time is Easter Sunday, a day brimming with the joy of the Risen Lord, which also begins the Easter Octave—eight days of unbroken celebration, each treated as though they are one and the same day. This period invites us into deep reflection and joy over the life-giving mysteries of Christ’s triumph over death.
