Parishes & Partnerships

Parishes & Partnerships

Welcome

Whether you’re new to the faith, or a regular church goer, our parishes aim to provide a warm welcome and safe space to support your journey in faith.

Partnerships are a group of parishes agreeing to work together to share resources, both human and material, to become stronger and better equipped for furthering the Kingdom of God. They offer our Diocese unlimited potential as we seek to ensure viable and flourishing communities of people who want to deepen their commitment to Jesus and witness to him in our world.
