Holy Cross preaches the Christian values of helping others yet did not help a friend of mine who was in a bad place. She turned to the church in desperation for help with her abuse and was turned away. Her mother donated to the church and will no longer donate anymore. She could have been referred to a church that could help or a charity for guidance (whether religious or not) but she was given nothing. I do not understand how this is acceptable when it is in your faith to help those in need. It is no wonder so many people are turning away from the faith when you do not practice what you preach. You can go to church on Sunday but if you don't help your community I can't help but see hypocrisy especially since the Churches are always outside the universities handing out bibles yet don't actually do anything to help those students in desperate need as Jesus has told. The church needs to focus more on withholding Christian values of love and charity rather than withholding their empty morals and appearances.
The Dominican order has been in Leicester since 1247 AD. Holy Cross Priory and Church was established in Leicester in 1882 by the Dominican order in buildings on Wellington Street, Leicester (which are now called Blackfriars Hall and St. Clement's Hall after that church proved to be too small). A new church was built between 1929 - 1931 at its present location facing Park Street with the church finally completed and formally consecrated in 1958.
Went for Sunday service on Saturday which is at 18:10 felt very peaceful. Not much crowd. Plenty of room for social distancing. Service timing on their website is not updated. Someone has posted a picture of the masses, that is the current schedule
The church is so beautiful and old to look at, incense burnt during the mass perfumes the air, the priests are very helpful and kind offering all their assistance
Catholic Church in Leicester City center with diverse worshipers. A good place to keep sustainan your Christian faith in the city of Leicester.
I found peace, solence and Christ in this church. I go mid week though fro the afternoon prayers. I'll forever be so grateful
I went in to light a few candles. 2 side entrances open most of the time, big double entrance I think open for Sundays etc.
