Supporting the Mission of Our Parish

Each Sunday, around 1,400 people come together in our parish to worship, pray, and receive the Eucharist. But our parish is more than Sunday Mass — it is alive every day of the week. From sacramental preparation to pastoral care, youth ministry to formation programs, our parish is a place of faith, growth, and service.

Throughout the week, our office and meeting spaces are filled with ministries that help, teach, support, and care for our community. None of this would be possible without the financial support of our parishioners.

Our Gratitude

We express our deepest gratitude to all who give generously to sustain the mission of the Catholic Parish of New Plymouth. Every contribution helps us celebrate the sacraments, run vital ministries, care for those in need, and maintain our parish facilities. Your generosity ensures that our parish remains a place of worship, formation, and community for generations to come.

Why Your Support Matters

Parishioner donations are our major source of funding. Our only other income comes from the rental of the three former presbyteries we own. Your support directly sustains our priests, our ministries, and the ongoing life of our parish.
