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.

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. ​

WEEKDAY MASS
Reflection of Readings - Sunday 24th May. Pentecost Sunday Year A.
​Pentecost is a celebration of the Holy Spirit coming to the followers of Jesus. It is a feast that reminds us of how God’s Spirit gives life, courage, and strength.
​
The readings show how God’s power
works in many ways, from creation to the birth of the Church. This day is often called the birthday of the Church. The Spirit came with wind and fire, filling the disciples with new energy. They spoke in many languages, showing that the message of Jesus is for all people.
What once was scattered is now brought together. The gift of the Spirit is not only for the first disciples but for us today.
