Of Cairns

The Diocese of Cairns is a broad and diverse region spread across 377,000 square kilometres, serving the people of 23 parishes, including 30 schools and colleges.

Rich in history, Aboriginal culture and international heritage, the Diocese is also blessed with one of the most pristine natural environments in Australia.

With a mixed tapestry of urban, rural, agricultural, coastal, island and rainforest settings, the Diocese is committed to sharing the joy of the gospel across our special community of communities.

Read more about our Catholic churches, mass times, services and ministries, and of course our historic St Monica’s Cathedral and world-famous Cathedral Windows.

RCTC Governance Board Expression of Interest

The Diocese of Cairns has various Governance Councils, Boards and Committees within its three agencies.
