May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound
Grant that your faithful, O Lord, whom you nourish and endow with life through the food of your Word and heavenly Sacrament, may so benefit from your beloved Son's great gifts that we may merit an eternal share in his life.
O God, you are my God, for you I long; for you my soul is thirsting. My body pines for you like a dry, weary land without water.

The history of St Patrick's
Originally a small hamlet, Sowerby Bridge in Saxon times, had a little church called St Peters (at the top of the hill), which was, of course, before the Reformation, Roman Catholic. Just before this, in 1526, during the reign of Henry VIII, a new church was built on the banks of the River Calder, but ten years later, when Henry split from Rome, this church became Anglican.
