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

Scripture Reading - 1 Thessalonians 5:23

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 19th April. 3rd Sunday of Easter Year A.

The Third Sunday of Easter is celebrated two weeks after Easter Sunday, focusing on the risen Jesus appearing to his disciples, often by the Sea of Tiberias or on the road to Emmaus. It highlights themes of recognition of Jesus in the breaking of bread and his physical resurrection. The Gospels focus on Jesus meeting his disciples who are often struggling to recognize him until he eats with them or explains the Scriptures.
