Welcome

Everyone is welcome in a Catholic Parish. It is your parish, your church. You don't have to be a Catholic to visit a church - and you don't have to be a Catholic to attend a service.

Everyone is Welcome!

Find your local Catholic Church and join us for Mass - or just pop in and introduce yourself.

Catholic Catechism - definitions

Catholic Parish

515 A parish is a certain community of the Christian faithful stably constituted in a particular church, whose pastoral care is entrusted to a pastor (parochus) as its proper pastor under the authority of the diocesan bishop.

Quote from the Canon Law of the Catholic Church

Role of the Pastor

530 In order to fulfill his office diligently, a pastor is to strive to know the faithful entrusted to his care:

Therefore he is to visit families, sharing especially in the cares, anxieties, and griefs of the faithful, strengthening them in the Lord, and prudently correcting them if they are failing in certain areas. With generous love he is to help the sick, particularly those close to death, by refreshing them solicitously with the sacraments and commending their souls to God; with particular diligence he is to seek out the poor, the afflicted, the lonely, those exiled from their country, and similarly those weighed down by special difficulties. He is to work so that spouses and parents are supported in fulfilling their proper duties and is to foster growth of Christian life in the family.

ยง2. A pastor is to recognize and promote the proper part which the lay members of the Christian faithful have in the mission of the Church, by fostering their associations for the purposes of religion. He is to cooperate with his own bishop and the presbyterium of the diocese, also working so that the faithful have concern for parochial communion, consider themselves members of the diocese and of the universal Church, and participate in and sustain efforts to promote this same communion
