    A very lovely, peaceful and very clean church. Really enjoyed the service with communion for my friends funeral.

    Named after Edward the Confessor, the first in the Saxon line of Kings. The first church was completed in 1893; it is now the church hall, situated to the rear of the present church, which was consecrated in September, 1946. The exterior in not an example of architectural splendour, however, the interior is a vast improvement, and of interest I would recommend the stone font, sanctuary, lady Chapel, windows and plaques depicting the Stations of the Cross which were donated by the Drake-Lee family. The interior, recently, refurbished, is conductive to liturgical services and quiet prayer and contemplation. A visit is strongly recommended, however, should one hesitate because of the rigidity (Canon Law) of the Catholic Church, I proffer this eternal truth: That for the Christian Abraham had faith without the aid of the Law to guide him, because he lived long before the Law was given to Moses on Sinai, and so his faith was greater than those who lived under the Law, and those who live under (Canon Law).

    very nice building shape and interesting interior. Beautiful stained glass and relics of Saint Faustina are a great advantage of this church.

    Such a lovely, welcoming church. Canon John is such a kind soul. He married my husband & I, it was a fabulous service (we opted for the short service) to accommodate the children. Then a year later we had our children baptised there by the Deacon who had everyone in fits of laughter. It is a really refreshing approach to prayer & suitable for all.

    Despite the obvious need for renovation, cleaning and decoration, this is a spiritual place. When you enter and walk towards the Altar and Tabernacle you can't ignore the Spiritual presence of God. You have to sit and talk with Our Lord or follow him to his Crucifixion and Resurrection by walking The Stations around the Church.

    It's simply fastastic. One of the best places to be. I have never seen such a huge turn out of parishioners in my 14 years in Kettering. Canon John Koenig is an amazing and beloved shepherd. This huge fare well after working tirelessly for St Edwards for the past 25 years is well deserved. I am privileged to be there in person.

    We attended for a beautiful baptism. The outside isn’t as nice as some religious places I e visited, but inside its lovely. The priest was kind and very good too.
