A Community United in Faith
Welcome to St Mary’s Syro-Malabar Parish Melbourne West
Located in Ravenhall, St Mary’s Syro-Malabar Parish Melbourne West is a vibrant Catholic faith community rooted in the rich traditions, spirituality and liturgy of the Syro-Malabar Church. We welcome families, children, youth and seniors from across Melbourne’s western suburbs to worship, pray and grow together in faith, fellowship and love.
Inspired by the teachings and example of Jesus Christ, we come together through the celebration of the Holy Qurbana, sacramental life, catechesis and our various parish associations and ministries. Inspired by the example of the Blessed Virgin Mary, our patroness, we strive to nurture spiritual growth, strengthen families and build a welcoming community where everyone can deepen their relationship with God, support one another and share Christ’s love through compassion, unity and service.

Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” — Matthew 19:14
Faith formation and catechesis are central to the life of the Syro-Malabar Church. Through catechesis, we guide children and families to grow in their understanding of Christ, deepen their faith and live according to His teachings.
Our catechetical journey is built on three essential pillars:
-
Celebration: Encountering Christ through the Sacred Mysteries and liturgical life.
-
Instruction: Growing in knowledge of Scripture and Church teachings.
-
Apprenticeship: Putting faith into practice through Christian living and service.
