Inverell Catholic Church

Sacred Heart Parish belongs to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Armidale. It was canonically erected in 1868.

We seek to bring people to Christ through Sacred Liturgy and Divine Worship. We live our lives founded upon the ancient Creed of the Church, which stretches back to the Apostles and is found in Holy Scripture.

Our parish offers many forms of prayer and adoration and ways to serve our local community in charitable works.

Holy Trinity School is our educational work and St Vincent De Paul Society is our charitable outreach.

Whether you live in Inverell or are passing through, our parish warmly welcomes you.

Inverell Sacred Heart Parish Prayer

Heavenly Father,
pour out your grace upon this place dedicated to the
Sacred Heart of Jesus, your Son.

Here Your word is proclaimed,
the Holy Sacraments are celebrated
and Your people are united in a family of believers.

We pray for our parish named in honour
of Your son Jesus' Sacred Heart.
Have mercy on us all and may every blessing of the Holy
Spirit be poured out on all members of our parish.

May our parish be filled with holiness and prayer,
with faith and love;
May it be a place where worthy and reverent worship
is offered to God,
and where we receive grace and power for our mission.

May all who come here find a welcoming home,
comfort in their needs and strength
for their journey of faith
until we reach our eternal home.
We make this prayer through Christ, Our Lord.
Amen.

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.
Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us.
St Joseph, protector of the Holy Family, pray for us.
St Mary MacKillop, pray for us.
