Our Parish

 

The Ponsonby Herne Bay Parish  was created in December 2017 when the separate parishes of  Sacred Heart, Ponsonby and Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Herne Bay were melded.

Fr Rory Morrissey, who had been the parish priest  at Herne Bay for 15 years, is parish priest. He is assisted by parish co-ordinator Eddie Eyre, part-time administrators in each church centre,  a finance team, pastoral team, and administration team.

There is further assistance for Masses from priests and students at the nearby Holy Cross Seminary, the neighbouring John Vianney Home for retired priests and priests who live in the area.
