Welcome to Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Dorchester. Holy Trinity has origins as far back as the 11th Century and the present building is a beautiful 19th Century Grade II listed church that is a constant source of inspiration for both visitors and regular worshippers. The parish is part of the Dorset Deanery pastoral area of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Plymouth and it serves the town of Dorchester and the surrounding area. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, which is celebrated twice on the Sabbath and on most weekdays, is the source and summit of all Catholic life and ministry. We hope that in exploring our website, you will be encouraged to become part of our parish life and worship

The mission of the Catholic Church, and therefore of our parish, is to profess our belief in the Triune God, Father Son and Holy Spirit. To proclaim our faith in word and deed and to make Jesus Christ known as the Son of God and Saviour of the world to people of all ages. We attempt to accomplish this through worship, prayer, catechesis, sacramental preparation and participation, education, social activities and care of those in need. We have a Catholic First School, St. Mary´s, and we minister to the local prison, Dorset County and other hospitals. We also have a number of Catholic Groups that minister within the parish to enhance its spiritual and community life and to care for the poor and those in need
