We the people of St Martin de Porres Parish, appreciative of our rich history, traditions and missionary heritage, strive to maintain a community which inspires and is empowered by the Holy Spirit through the Sacraments and prayer.

We are encouraged to emulate our patron saint, St Martin de Porres through fervent practice of prayer and devotion to the Blessed Sacrament where our values are evident in how we interact and work together as individuals and as a parish community.

We celebrate the diversity of backgrounds. Our church and parish are the centre of our faith community where we all share a common vision of values, a sense of belonging and collaboration with different cultures inspired by our Catholic traditions:

·      Welcome

·      Respect

·      Faithfulness

·      Empathy

·      Honesty

·      Inclusion

·      Equity

We acknowledge that we are all at different stages in our spiritual journey. Empowered by our charisms, individual gifts and talents, we are called to grow in Christian faith and love to proclaim the Gospel values and minister to our parish family and all the people of God.
