A message from the Director:

Welcome to the St Barnabas Society. Thank you for your interest in our work and I hope that you will enjoy exploring our website. Here you will discover something about the history of our Society, which was known previously as the Converts Aid Society, and the important work we continue to do today in supporting clergy and religious of other Christian denominations and other world faiths who have been led by the Holy Spirit into the full communion of the Catholic Church. For many it has been a difficult path and one which has involved huge sacrifice. The Society strives to be a friend to them and a supporter, just as our patron St Barnabas was a friend and supporter to St Paul the Apostle, the greatest convert the Church has ever known.

Please pray for us and help us if you can. When people are generous to us then we in our turn can be generous to others.
