Some years ago, the Divine Word Missionaries accepted an invitation from the Bishop of Wollongong to take up the administration of Mary Mother of the Church parish in Macquarie Fields.

The parish is a vibrant community made up of people from diverse multinational backgrounds, including: Mauritian, Polish, Samoan, New Zealand, German, Filipino, American, former Yugoslavian, Irish, Scottish, Fijian, Indonesian, Indian, Indigenous and Australian.

The Parish Priest is Fr Bosco Son SVD.

Holy Family Catholic Parish is a big, vibrant, multicultural parish on Sydney’s south-western outskirts and while its people come from a wide range of cultural backgrounds, they are one body in Christ and committed to continually growing as a missionary parish.

The parish is comprised of the two communities of Ingleburn and Minto. Fr Henry Adler SVD has been parish priest there since 2022.

Holy Family Parish at Ingleburn sits right alongside its neighbouring parish of Macquarie Fields, which is also under the pastoral care of the Divine Word Missionaries.
