Praying for our new parish

Please pray for the new St John Paul II parish.

This weekend marks an important moment in the history of our Archdiocese – the merging of two of our parishes into the St John Paul II Parish.

The new parish covers Nelson and Tasman Catholic churches, merging Holy Family Nelson-Stoke and Our Lady of the Bays.

A special Amalgamation Mass will take place this Sunday (19 April) at 11am at the Garin College gym in Nelson. It will be celebrated by Archbishop Paul.

Please pray for the new parish and parishioners as this new era begins.
