St Joseph's Catholic Church, Oakham

Canon Peter Vellacott, Rev Deacon Raymond Keogh, Canon Stephen Dye (Retired), and our parish community welcome you to our parish website of the Roman Catholic Parish of Rutland.

Our parish covers the county of Rutland which includes the two market towns of Oakham and Uppingham and the many villages of Rutland and we are linked to St Mary & St Augustine in Stamford.

Whether you come to church every day or haven't been for quite some time, remember that the Church is here to help you in your journey of faith: coming closer to God every day, and living out the message proclaimed by his Son, Jesus.

On our website you'll find some information about the ways in which our parish, a welcoming community of believers, can support you and ways in which you can become more involved if you wish. 

Holy Mass is celebrated in the parish church of St Joseph's in Oakham and St Mary & St Augustine in Stamford, with Latin Mass on a Friday evening celebrated in the 19th century private chapel at Exton Hall.

We are a thriving Parish with many activities and prayer groups that meet both at the church and in private homes.
