Integrity in our Common Mission

Bishop Paul Bird and the Bishop’s Advisory Council have asked that each parish facilitate a program of familiarisation with the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference document Integrity in the Service of the Church.

All parish workers including volunteers and those in lay ministry are asked to be familiar with this document.

It is a very helpful document for all parishioners.

The document can be downloaded HERE.

Hard copies can be ordered from: 02 9669 6218.

We are a community of communities from the Murray to the sea.
Inspired by the Gospel and nourished by the Eucharist, we follow the example of Jesus and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, reaching out in joyful and humble service, caring for all of God’s creation, growing in love day by day and looking forward to life with God forever.

Diocesan Vision Statement

In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands in which the Diocese of Ballarat sits. We would like to pay our respects to Aboriginal Elders past, present and future. Their wisdom can help us care for the earth, our common home.
