Welcome
Hello, good to see you here on our website and I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to you and to tell you a little bit about our parish of St Catherine of Siena in Caroline Springs.
My name is Fr Richard Rosse and I moved to Australia from Mauritius in 1998 where I came for my tertiary education. I have been a priest since 2010 after a vocation to the priesthood was felt at WYD in 2002. I have been the Parish Priest here since 2017.
Our community here at St Catherine of Siena is quite distinct as we endeavour to be a community which is “a welcoming and dynamic faith-filled Catholic community, living and sharing the Gospel, to set the world ablaze.”
Together, as members of this community here, and as brothers and sisters in Christ, we strive to continually grow in our relationship with Jesus and with one another, of course. In a world which has many distractions, many ups and downs, we come together as a community to share life and to grow as disciples of Jesus.
