Welcome to the Diocese of Plymouth
Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God Romans 15:7
Welcome to the Diocese of Plymouth – the Catholic Church in the Southwest of England. We are a community of people who seek to follow Jesus as his disciples. We share, celebrate and express our faith, by giving witness to our belief and encounter with the living God who is the source of our life. On this website you will find out more about our mission and how we can support your spiritual journey.
Our Bishop-elect is The Right Reverend Philip Moger and, until his installation, our Diocesan Administrator Canon Paul Cummins, continues to oversee the mission of the Catholic Church in the Diocese. Please keep them both in your prayers.
