The oratory

Here at the Cardiff Oratory there are many ways to get involved in the life of the community; assisting in the liturgy as a Little Brother; joining the men’s group, the Knights of St Columba; joining the women’s groups, Magnificat; helping us on missions in schools and parishes.

Sacred Music
