News from the Diocesan Archives

As part of the relocation of the Diocesan archives to the Bishop’s Office, the Ballarat Catholic Diocesan Historical Committee has agreed to release some of the surplus liturgical, educational and encyclopedia material from the library collection. These books are being offered to any Church, parish or school within the diocese.

Anyone wishing to know more about this collection please contact the archivist directly on archives@ballarat.catholic.org.au

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.
