Parish Life

Together in Faith

Whether you're looking to make new friends, deepen your faith, serve the community or simply enjoy spending time with others, there's a place for you at St Anthony's.

Our parish is much more than Mass. Throughout the week, people of all ages gather to pray, learn, volunteer, support one another and enjoy being part of our parish family. We'd love to welcome you.
