Our parish aims to be a welcoming and caring community of faith, living the gospel with one another and the wider community in this rural district in central Victoria. Our worship services involve Bible centered messages and sharing in Holy Communion together. We seek to involve and teach our children through their own programs and the wider service. We celebrate the times we all join together as a parish and seek to serve our communities as we live out our faith in God.
