Loving God by Loving Others.

Welcome to St Joseph’s Catholic Church Wrightington and the National Shrine of St John Rigbye (Martyr)

Throughout history, the Good news of Jesus Christ has been spread by as many means as possible. St. Paul wrote letters, other Apostles preached and today we are able to use the internet to bring people closer to the Lord.
