St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception - Avondale Parish

 Welcome everyone to our website!

If you are a newcomer to our parish, a returning parishioner or if you are thinking about joining the Catholic faith, a very special welcome to you.  St. Mary's Parish, Avondale is a very vibrant, multi-cultural and friendly parish.  Please feel free to introduce yourself to Father or any one of our wonderful parishioners after Mass.  We would love to meet you.

Our parish logo is 'Growing in Faith Together' and it is with this that we see ourselves not as individuals but as a 'parish family' who come together to worship, to receive and spread The Word of God and more importantly, to receive The Body and Blood of Christ through Holy Communion. 

Our website serves as another avenue for us to share parish information with our parishioners as well as with the wider Catholic community.  We have a weekly Sunday Bulletin which gets distributed at Sunday Masses and copies are also left in the Church Foyer for those who attend Mass during the week.  If you missed out getting a copy, you're more than welcome to check it out on this website under 'Sunday Bulletins'.  We also have relevant Rosters for the coming week under the 'Rosters' heading.  We have some photos posted but we hope to add more soon particularly from our parish pilgrims that attended World Youth Day in Sydney. 

Our parish website is a work in progress but we hope you enjoy it anyway.  We're hoping to add some new features in the near future so watch this space.

Wishing you a great day, every day!

With God's blessings,

Website Administrator - Parish Office
