Visiting the Western District of the Western Border Parish

The western district of the Western Border Parish in Victoria was graced with a special visit from
Bishop Paul. His visit was a significant event for the local Catholic communities, particularly as it coincided with the 150th anniversary of the Diocese of Ballarat, an occasion of deep historical and spiritual significance.

We are a community of communities from the Murray to the sea.
Inspired by the Gospel and nourished by the Eucharist, we follow the example of Jesus and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, reaching out in joyful and humble service, caring for all of God’s creation, growing in love day by day and looking forward to life with God forever.

Diocesan Vision Statement

In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands in which the Diocese of Ballarat sits. We would like to pay our respects to Aboriginal Elders past, present and future. Their wisdom can help us care for the earth, our common home.
