The mission of our Church is defined in the document Evangelii Nuntiandi:
‘Evangelising is in fact the grace and vocation proper to the Church, her deepest identity. She exists in order to evangelise (EN 14)
Bishop David spoke recently about what our missionary diocese looks like. Read his words here
Our diocese consists of lay people of all ages aswell as priests, deacons, religious sisters and brothers. We are called together to participate in our mission of sharing the Gospel of Jesus and building
the Kingdom of God.
Our mission is vast and we aim to make a difference to the world we live. We fulfil our mission in all aspects of life through birth, death and bereavement, sickness, loneliness, hunger, imprisonment, working with people with disabilities, and with the young and the old; through families; caring for the poor, the homeless and those who live at the margins of society; sharing our Faith with each person we meet and reaching out to our society so much in need of the Love of Christ.
Our curial departments support the local mission through our framework for mission, announced by Bishop David in July 2021.
Details of our Catholic parishes can be found here and of our Catholic schools here
