Livestreamed Masses: Daily (Mon-Sun) at 6pm and in addition, at 12 noon on Sunday, live and recorded at youtube.com/c/RosaryShrineUK
The Sunday 12 noon Mass is an Ordinary Form Mass in English with Latin chants celebrated at the High Altar, and the Sunday 5pm Mass is an Extraordinary Form Latin Mass in the Dominican Rite, celebrated at the High Altar. Other Sunday Masses (not livestreamed) are at

8:30am and 10am, and a Vigil Mass on Saturday at 6pm. Daily Masses throughout the week are at 6pm (also livestreamed). Adoration every day at 5pm. When the church was completed in 1883, it was the first in the world to have distinct chapels, each with its own carved stone altarpiece, dedicated to the Mysteries of the Rosary. Fourteen side chapels of the Joyful, Sorrowful, and Glorious Mysteries flank the nave accessed by a great processional ambulatory, and the fifteenth Mystery of the Dominican Rosary – the Coronation of Our Lady in heaven – is represented in colourful stained glass around the High Altar, which itself is crowned with a great carved stone ‘Exposition Throne’ for the Blessed Sacrament. To this day, this church remains one of the few in the world with separate chapels for each Mystery of the Rosary, and we believe it is unique in having sculpted depictions of the Mysteries. This architectural form invites the pilgrim to walk from chapel to chapel, and so to enter into God’s space, to contemplate the mysteries of his love using the sacred art in each Rosary Chapel, and to journey towards the vision of heaven depicted above the High Altar. This ‘stational’ way of praying the Rosary, processing around the church and meditating on sacred art, was uniquely begun in this Rosary Shrine church; a profoundly Dominican way of praying and journeying, as St Dominic often did.

Join Fr Lawrence Lew, former rector and parish priest here at St Dominic's - The Rosary Shrine, as he explores the deep connection between the Bible and the Holy Rosary inside our magnificent church. In this rich and reflective journey through sacred art, Scripture and Catholic tradition, Fr Lawrence explains how the Rosary is truly a “compendium of the Gospel,” revealing the mysteries of salvation through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
