The St Scholastica's Vibe

We are big on welcome, friendship, hospitality, and journeying together.

We celebrate the diversity of ages, cultures and backgrounds that make up our vibrant community.

We're hungry to grow in our relationship with God through Jesus, and are committed to equipping our people to step into their God-given potential.

Our Mission

We exist to help people to flourish in Christ.

Our focus is to grow together in the love, life and mission of Jesus - because we believe that Jesus is the source of true human flourishing!

Our Vision

To awaken people in Melbourne and beyond to the beauty, love and power of God.

To help people to find interior freedom, come alive in Christ, and meaningfully contribute to the growth of God’s Kingdom.

To be a spark of renewal in and for the Catholic Church.

Our Priests

St Scholastica's is under the care of the Missionaries of God's Love (MGL), a Religious congregation founded in Australia.

The Missionaries of God's Love is a charismatic and contemplative Catholic religious order of priests, consecrated brothers and consecrated women. The MGLs were founded by Fr Ken Barker in 1986. The MGLs were born out of the Disciples of Jesus Covenant Community in Canberra. We currently have missions in Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, and Darwin, as well as in Manila - Philippines and Flores - Indonesia. To find out more, explore the links below.
