Welcome to St Mary's Cathedral Parish!

​

St Mary’s Cathedral Hobart has been a spiritual abode to many generations over 130 years.  Our forefathers of faith have contributed with blood, sweat and tears to the construction of this spiritual edifice.  As one of the oldest Cathedrals in Australia, it stands as a testimony to the profound faith in the Lord and His beloved mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary. 

​

Thousands of children of God have been baptised and welcomed into God’s family at St Mary’s Cathedral.  Many have come before the Lord with their joys and sorrows and struggles in life seeking consolation, peace and serenity.  Each day, people gather around the altar of the Lord at this Cathedral to catch a glimpse of the divine through the Eucharistic meal.  They are nourished and received grace after grace through the Sacramental life of the Church.  Over the years scores of young men and women have given their life to God fully through Holy Orders and religious life. 

​

On a regular basis, all students of the five Catholic colleges and schools of the parish quench their thirst in the wellsprings of grace that the Lord offers them through this outstanding spiritual monument.  With such spiritual heritage I, Fr Leonard Caldera, as the Administrator of St Mary’s Cathedral,  extend a warm welcome to all who wish to visit and worship.
