An image of Jamestown, the largest settlement on the island of Saint Helena. Fr. Jarlath Gough OFM Cap. (1902-1983) was the only resident Catholic priest on the island from 1957 to 1964. The Sacred Heart Church (built in 1852) in Jamestown is visible in the image. Fr. Jarlath's principal achievement was the restoration of this church.

Report on Parow Parish

A pastoral report on Parow Parish, Cape Province, South Africa, compiled by Fr. Didacus McGrath OFM Cap. (1929-2018). The report refers to the three areas within the parish: Tiervlei (Tyger Valley), Parow and Elsies River. The report notes that ‘in the parish, taken as a whole, the proportion of Coloured to White is 2 to 1. It can scarcely be classed a “White” Parish. We use the term “White” and “Coloured” with no intention of approving a situation. The Churches in Parow and Tiervlei are almost certainly the only Churches with mixed attendance in the area’.
