St. Alban's Church

Welcome to St. Alban's

You are invited to have a look around our site and learn a little bit more about us.


St. Alban's is a parish within the Nottingham Diocese of the Catholic Church in England and Wales. We are a partner in the Church on Oakwood (ecumenical). 

We strive to answer the gospel call of Christ in our daily lives.  We invite all people whether you are a Christian or not, to explore for yourself what God is offering to you through Jesus. 

Our parish priest is Fr Paul Newman and we are a parish with a rich diversity of people. We meet for Mass both at Chaddesden and at the Church on Oakwood. We invite you to join us, either at these Masses or in a more informal way.


Our Mission

We, the people of St Alban’s Catholic Parish, worshipping together in Chaddesden and Oakwood, strive to answer the call of Christ by living out our Christian witness. We aim to ensure St Alban’s Parish will continue to grow as a Christian Community which actively professes and promotes the Good News of the Gospel to everyone.
