Welcome to our parish of St Mary's, Bodmin in Cornwall. We are a Roman Catholic parish belonging to the diocese of Plymouth. We comprise the churches of St Mary and St Petroc in Bodmin, St Michael in Wadebridge, St Petroc & St Saviour in Padstow and St Paul the Apostle in Tintagel. St Mary's Catholic Primary School is located close to the church in Bodmin. There are two members of the congregation of the Daughters of Mary and Joseph in our parish, Sr Pauline and Sr Barbara. We greatly benefit from their prayer and parish work. Bodmin is one of the nine key parishes in Cornwall. In October 2005 Bishop Christopher Budd opened our new Parish Centre which is regularly used by parishioners and outside groups. The presbytery in Bodmin and the parish office are situated in the Parish Centre. The office is open from 9am to 1pm Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, telephone 01208 72833.
Our parish priest is Revd Canon Keith Mitchell who is based at the presbytery in Bodmin.
We record the Sunday Mass from our parish church in Bodmin every week. You can listen to it by clicking on this link. Also, we record some of the talks given by our priests and catechists. See the Courses and Retreats page.
