Karratha Parish Celebrates.

Karratha Parishioners had a truly beautiful and Grace-filled evening on Saturday 25th of April 2026, as Bishop Michael Morrissey officially Installed the Diocese of Geraldton Vicar General, Fr Gerard Totañes VG, as the new Parish Priest of Karratha, Dampier and Wickham.

All the parishes came together as one Parish to celebrate the Installation and to also celebrate Fr Gerard's 25th Anniversary of Priesthood. The evening was topped off by a great night of food and entertainment.

Vision Statement

We are:

* a welcoming community which reaches out to all
* celebrating Christ's presence
* joyfully living out our Christian calling across distance and diversity

This vision states that as a Diocese, we aim to be a welcoming, missionary, centred on Christ, and each striving to live one's particular vocation. It is in living out our calling that we praise God, follow Christ, influence society and achieve the goal of eternal life won for us by Christ. In the parishes we have encouraged people to measure whatever they do against this Diocesan vision.
