The Parish of Meredith is a vibrant and growing community. We hope you will get a feel for the "Spirit" of our Parish as you browse our site. St Joseph's, which incorporates seven Parish centres, (you can visit each of them, through the links) is a warm, welcoming, Catholic faith community that looks with hope to the future.
I'm not sure just what area the parish covers - but it is a large area! Most of the parish is in the Golden Plains Shire: Anakie is in the City of Greater Geelong, Elaine is in the Moorabool Shire and Winchelsea is in the Surfcoast Shire.
It is great to be part of a parish that is alive. Sure, we have a wonderful heritage (17th oldest parish in the state of Victoria) but our people live the present and are open to the challenges of the future.
We seek to live our faith, to grow in our faith and to get to better know other members of the parish. We have a variety of activities each year to facilitate this. These activities are advertised/announced by a Parish Renewal Newsletter we call "Far Corners".
