Catholic Church in Deal, Kent
Please find some information about our parish. We are in the process of developing this website and more information will be added in due course.
We strive to live our Catholic faith with integrity and in an open and inclusive way.
Our patron saint – Thomas of Canterbury or Thomas Becket – is a local saint. He died a martyr in Canterbury Cathedral on 29 December 1170. Here in Deal, we want to be true to all that is good and holy and so we assure you of a warm welcome to our parish. Please do visit us.
In the meantime, we send you our warmest greetings in Christ.
Canon Brian Coyle (Parish Priest) and the Parish Community.
