We acknowledge the Yalukit Willam Clan, the traditional owners and custodians of the land on which our parish stands.

We pay our respects to them. May we walk gently here.

 

Welcome to the website of the Catholic parish of Port Melbourne and Middle Park in Melbourne, Australia. We are one parish with two communities, St Joseph's in Port Melbourne and Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Middle Park.

This is an exciting time of renewal, revitalisation and development in our parish and, as you browse our website, you might see some of the breadth of activity underway.

Our vitality as a parish is nurtured and sustained by the spirituality of the Carmelite Order and through our various Liturgical and Outreach ministries and parish personnel.

For those who wish to know more about our parish, or are considering joining us, please contact me or our Pastoral Associate, Amanda Smith, to discuss your needs.

For those already in the parish, there are many opportunities for you to become involved. I invite you to consider the ways in which you might feel comfortable in sharing your gifts and time with others.

If you are visiting our Parish, or simply browsing this website, you are also invited to make any comment in our Guest Book.

Best wishes,

David Hofman, O.Carm.
Parish Priest
