The St Mary Magdalene´s website is in transition to the ownership of the parish. We apologise for any disruption to the site during the handover. A new website will be launched soon. This website was created and lovingly maintained for well over a quarter of a century by Jean Douglas, and it continues to be preserved in her memory following her death. After retiring from teaching, Jean chose to give back to the church she loved, St Mary Magdalene´s, by teaching herself to write code and building this website from the ground up. Jean carefully updated and expanded its content, ensuring it included as many people as possible and brought joy and connection to those both near and far, including individuals unable to attend church in person. This page includes a language converter to enable people from around the globe to read it´s content. Her work proved especially vital during the COVID-19 pandemic, when travel was restricted and many relied on the site for news and a sense of community. On average this site maintains around 6000 to 9000 visits per week, Jean´s dedication touched countless lives. |

St Mary Magdalene St Mary Magdalene is the patron saint of women and was one of the disciples of Jesus. When Jesus was crucified, she followed the soldiers to see where they burries the body of Jesus. On Easter morning, Mary Magdalene, with two other women, went to the tomb where they planned to anoint the body of Jesus, but there they found that the tomb was empty and an angel there told the women that Jesus had risen and was on his way to heaven. The women were the first people to see the risen Lord.
