Welcome to our website
The parish was formed in 2006 by merging the adjoining parishes of St Mary and St Monica (which served
Cottingley) and Sacred Heart (which served Bingley).
We now have two churches in our parish, one from each of the two previous parishes.
Our parish is part of the Diocese of Leeds.
The Cottingley church was opened on |
Sacred Heart church was opened on |

Consultation on the future of the Dioceses of Leeds, Middlesbrough and HallamAs part of the consultation currently taking place across our three Dioceses, there is an opportunity for all clergy, religious and members of the lay faithful to contribute by completing an online questionnaire, either individually or as a parish group. Prayerful reflection should be given to the questions so that the Holy Spirit may guide this process of discernment. Prayer resources and a presentation are available on the diocesan website to support this process. Responses should be submitted no later than Friday, 22nd May 2026.

Donations to the Parish
STAY SAFE - STAY SECURE
Please be aware that at this time, you and your parish are vulnerable to many dishonest financial schemes being set up by opportunistic companies and ‘crowd-funding’. In increasingly financially-straitened circumstances the question is still being asked: ‘How do I support my Parish during this time?’ In response, this page contains methods of Parish Giving which are recommended as the most secure ways for you to continue to contribute as far as you are able to the Offertory and to benefit your parish.
Bingley Food bank
Your donations are still much wanted! Donations can be made at Bingley Little Theatre (Bingley Arts Centre) on Tuesdays and Fridays between 10.30am and 11.45am.
