Welcome from the Parish Priest

Welcome to the Catholic Parish of Applecross. We are a vibrant faith community that is going through an exciting period of re-generation. Many new and young families are moving into the area, as large house blocks are being divided into smaller home units. Our St Benedict's Parish School has recently completed the building of five new classrooms; and we celebrated the Dedication of our new St Benedict's Church on 24 February 2008.

Whilst focusing on all these developments, the celebration and worship of the Eucharist is always at the centre of our life as a parish community, with our liturgies enhanced by a wonderful music tradition. In response to our Archbishop's request in 2003, the Parish Pastoral Council has developed an extensive Evangelization Program and has implemented many pastoral initiatives, especially aimed at reaching out to all age groups that make up our community. At the same time we do look beyond our own boundaries, and knowing that we are materially blessed by God in so many ways, our parishioners have also been exceptionally generous in providing material assistance to the wider mission of the Church, both in Australia and overseas.

We hope you find our website helpful. We are open to any comments you would like to offer that will help us more fully live out the mission of Christ in this part of the world.
