Welcome
A very warm welcome to SS John Cantius & Nicholas Catholic Church, Broxburn, Scotland. The ancient parish Church of Strathbrock, dedicated to St Nicholas was the focus of Catholic life and worship for over 400 years.
The modern parish is over 150 years old and Catholics, who have moved to Broxburn from far and wide, have been worshipping in the area since then.

Online Session for Catholic Parents
Being a Catholic parent is a hugely important task… yet do we ever get any training or formation for it? Our online sessions are intended to offer exactly that. We plan to offer them at intervals, for all mums and dads with children at school whether primary or secondary. We hope they prove informative and supportive. The first session is 9th November at 7pm and will be led by Sr Mary Benedicta, who has lots of experience. See link below to join meeting.
