3 Churches in Cardiff | Official website for Christ the King, St Paul's and St Brigid's R.C. churches in Cardiff, UK.

The Church is more than a building. On this website you are very welcome to find out more about our lively three church communities. Why not have a browse, or get in touch for a chat. We offer a warm reception and an ability to listen, along with support for the wider community.

‘I still haven’t found what I’m looking for’ is a famous U2 song. What are you looking for from life? We put a relationship with God, and loving our neighbour, at the heart of our Christian churches.

If you are seeking hope, peace and joy, are returning to church or have moved into the area, or are simply curious, please take a moment to download our leaflet.

We welcome anyone of any or no faith, in person or online, to our active three Catholic churches.

Our vision is to build our Church into a vibrant and confident community which will grow as we share together in worshipping, praying, caring and serving.

Fathers Matthew, Andy and Peter and our parishioners

Prayers this week

This Sunday (Peace Sunday) coincides with the start of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity (18 to 25 January).
Please pray for peace in our world at this time when so much violence and upheaval is reported every day. Remember those whose lives are shattered by conflict and who have lost family members, homes and livelihoods. Pray too for political leaders that they may work to resolve matters by peaceful means and for all peacemakers and peacekeepers.
Pray this week for our fellow Christians locally and worldwide that united in work and prayer, we may show the light of Christ in our troubled world.
