Our Links with Africa

Our parish is linked to two parishes in Africa. Our Lady of Good Counsel is linked with St Teresa of Avila parish in Volksrust, South Africa and with St Mary’s parish in Hoima, Uganda. In Volksrust we have supported the parishioners in building a Parish Hall and in Uganda we have helped Father Charles, the Parish Priest, to expand a school and build an orphanage.
