Who we are
The Parish of Moorooka Salisbury incorporates two Mass Centres, St Brendan’s, Moorooka and St Pius X, Salisbury. St Brendan’s Church opened in 1919, a wooden structure built as a result of the hard work and contributions of a dedicated Catholic community.
In 1952, Archbishop Duhig purchased land in Golda Avenue, Salisbury and the first Mass was celebrated in a small dwelling on the property. In 1961, Salisbury became a parish in its own right. In 1969, fundraising by Salisbury parishioners culminated in the building of a new brick “in the ground” church, then regarded as a very modern church design.
In 2007, the two parishes were amalgamated to form the parish of Moorooka Salisbury. Perhaps, in a unique way, because of its history, it was a “getting back together” with both congregations in the parish blending harmoniously.
