Pope Leo’s Prayer Intention for June:
That the world might grow in compassion: let us pray for each one of us to find consolation in a personal relationship with Jesus, and that from his Heart we may learn to have compassion for the world.
A Prayer for our new Pope Leo XIV
O God, who chose your servant Leo XIV, as successor to the Apostle Peter as Shepherd of the whole flock, look favourably on the prayers of your people and grant that, as Vicar of Christ on earth, he may confirm his brothers and sisters and that the whole Church may be in communion with him in the bond of unity, love and peace, so that in You, the Shepherd of souls, all may know the truth and share in eternal life.

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.
