Welcome to the new Parish of Maghera website, www.parishofmaghera.com. The Parish is centred around our two churches, Mary of the Assumption Church in Newcastle and St Patrick's Church in Bryansford, both located in County Down, Northern Ireland.

Visitors to our site can find out what activities are going on in the parish and meet the local priests.The site will be kept up-to-date and each and every week you will be able to download the weekly bulletin.

We hope you enjoy your visit and come back again soon for further updates and information.

Wishing you God's blessing.
