A Night of Music and Fun

The African Priests and Religious of the Diocese of Salford in conjunction with the F.I.L.M TRIUMPHANTS UK are inviting us to a concert in celebration of African Liturgical and folk music. This is to be held at St. Mary’s catholic Church, Failsworth, M35 0NN on the 31st of July 2026 at 7pm. This promises to be a night of good music (by the invited choir) and laughter (by the priests and religious who also try to sing!). Let us mark this date in our dairies and come to have a fun filled evening.
