Our Lady of Compassion Church, Upton Park, Catholic church in Upton Park, London, England
Our Lady of Compassion Church is a Catholic church building in Upton Park, situated on Green Street in the London Borough of Newham. It features traditional Catholic architectural elements including dedicated worship spaces and smaller chapel areas.
The church was established in 1911 when local Catholics needed their own place of worship separate from school chapels. This founding moment reflected the growing Catholic population and the need for a dedicated parish in what was then a developing neighborhood.
The parish brings together people from various countries and backgrounds, and you can see this diversity reflected in how the space is used and shared. The services and gatherings show how the community comes together across different cultures.
The church is accessible throughout the week and weekends, offering services at various times that accommodate different schedules. Visitors can enter the building to attend services, pray quietly, or simply explore the space.
The church runs an independent shelter program for homeless people that takes place every Wednesday. This operates without financial support from the Vatican or the Diocese, reflecting the community's commitment to helping those in need.
