St Winefride's Church (also known as St Winifred's Church or St Winefred's Church) is a Roman Catholic Parish church in Holywell, Flintshire. It was founded by the Society of Jesus and was first church in the United Kingdom to be administered by the Vocationist Fathers. It is Grade II listed building.[1] It was the first church the Jesuits built in Wales.

History

It was founded by the Jesuits in 1832.[1] They went on to establish St Beuno's College in 1848. From the college they also founded other churches such as Our Lady of the Assumption Church in Rhyl and Our Lady of Ransom and the Holy Souls Church in Llandrindod Wells.

At some point in the twentieth-century they handed over the church to the Diocese of Wrexham. On 19 August 1991, the church was designated a Grade II listed building.[1]

On 6 April 2008, the Bishop of Wrexham, Edwin Regan, invited the Vocationist Fathers to the church and who continue to administer the parish.[2]
