Our Community

As a result of recent community consultation, a new Parish name Good Samaritan was selected by parishioners and approved by Archbishop Mark Coleridge.

Good Samaritan Parish includes St Columba’s Catholic Church Wilston and St Carthage’s Catholic Church Gordon Park.

St John the Baptist Parish includes St John the Baptist Catholic Church Enoggera and Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church Everton Park.

St Gregory’s Traditional Latin Mass Community was established in 1988 with the blessing of the then archbishop of Brisbane, John Bathersby, and continues with that of the current archbishop, Mark Coleridge.

The Neocatechumenal Way is a charism within the Catholic Church at the service of the bishops as one of the forms of diocesan implementation of Christian Initiation and of ongoing education in faith.

Here in our parish there is a vibrant Neocatechumenal community.

Our community includes two Catholic Primary Schools: St Columba’s Catholic Primary School and Our Lady of the Assumption Catholic Primary School.

In our community we are committed to providing authentic catholic education to all people of all age groups. This is because of our belief that catholic education goes deeper than class program but more of an on going journey of discovering and immersion into the life given experience and encounter with God. Hence, every year we run Lenten program, holiday school activities for children and RCIA for adult.

There is also other faith education run in our community like: Ignatian retreat/spirituality program. All these help Catholics rekindle the fire of faith and reconnect with their faith. It helps non-Catholics to learn more about the Catholic faith too. See current newsletter for keep up date on coming programs or contact the parish office kbcc@bne.catholic.net.au
