Welcome from the Bishop
Thank you for visiting the website for the Catholic Diocese of Rockhampton.

I trust this website will give you a glimpse of our Diocese, help you connect with a local church or event, find out about us and our work, and grow in your faith.
Most Rev Michael McCarthy
Bishop of Rockhampton
