Welcome to Our Parish Webpage!
Dear Friends, Parishioners, and My Dear Children,
It is with great joy that I welcome you to our Parish webpage! This space is designed to keep us connected, informed, and spiritually nourished. As you explore, you will find updates that strengthen our bond as a faith community and links that connect us to the wider Catholic Church.
In the words of our Holy Father, we are reminded of our mission to walk together in faith, hope, and love.
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” – Romans 15:13
Our purpose for this website is simple yet profound—to be a welcoming presence and to faithfully carry forward the mission of our Lord. May this platform be a source of inspiration, guidance, and unity for all who visit.
Stay connected, stay blessed, and may God’s grace be with you always!
With prayers and blessings,
Rev Fr Joseph Figurado PP
All Saints
Fr Joseph Figurado was installed as our Parish Administrator on 29th February last year by Bishop Bill Wright for a 12 month period. He has now been appointed as Parish Priest for a period of six years from 1st March 2021 to 28th February 2027 by the Decree of the Vicar General of Maitland-Newcastle. We congratulate him on this appointment and offer our prayers and support.
“Service flows from prayer. We are only able to serve others to the degree that we are connected to Jesus, according to the grace we have received. We cannot hope to help other apart from Jesus. Sometimes, we may feel far from Jesus, but this should not be an obstacle. At these times we can turn to Him with humility and do the humble work.” Mother Theresa.
Dear Parishioners—Greetings in the Lord, The above is the answer for many queries which you have been asking! I’m really humbled and honoured to receive this “Service Title” Parish Priest. As I began before 12 Months ago with this “ A humble Service with a Smile”. As you all know, Our Parish is our Family, Let us try to create a Family of God for the service of others. Let us try this together, in the presence of God we are children of His.
All Praise and thanks to God, With Prayers and Love in the Lord,
Fr Joseph Figurado Parish Priest
Safeguarding in our Parish
Safeguarding is everybody's responsibility, but it starts with ME!
Pope Francis has called all of us in the Catholic Church “to assume responsibility for preventing cases of abuse and to work for justice and for healing”. I now amplify and specify the Pope’s message. The Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle takes a zero-tolerance approach to abuse. Every one of us must each day commit ourselves individually and collectively to safeguard each child and every vulnerable person to whom we minister and interact with.
