Situated on Oxford Road at the heart of the University of Manchester, the famous Holy Name Church serves the university community in Manchester. Built and served by members of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits), the Holy Name is a still and sacred point in the middle of an internationally important area of study, research and health care.

UPDATE - unfortunately the Encounter event advertised has been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. On behalf of the Fraternas organising team we apologise for any disappointment caused.
If you are a student or university staff member here in Manchester and are around for parts of the summer please see our Chaplaincy Summer opening times below:
NO NIGHTFEVER on June 1st.
We have been indicating that there is a NightFever at the Holy Name on Friday 1st June: apologies - this was an error. Nightfever will resume after the Summer, on Friday 5th October. In the meantime, let's continue to pray for each other and for those who share moments of grace with us on our NightFever evenings.

Holy Name is not a parish church but is a part of the Catholic Chaplaincy to the institutions of higher education in Manchester. (We are in fact in the parish of St Augustine). The Diocese of Salford authorises us to celebrate the sacraments of Baptism and Matrimony only for students currently enrolled, and academic staff, at one of those institutions. If you have an enquiry regarding one of these sacraments, please contact Fr William Pearsall SJ, who will be very happy to help you: pearsall@jesuits.net
