Healing, Heritage and Hospitality in the heart of Bristol

 ❝A very special place.❞

St James is a place of Christian (Roman Catholic) worship and devotion but is open to all people from any faith or none.

Sunday Mass is at 8am.


The Ordinariate celebrates Mass on Sundays at 9:15am.

The Ordinariate was created in 2008 by Pope Benedict to help Anglicans who could no longer in good conscience accept the changes in theology and practice in the Church of England.
