Welcome to the website of the Roman Catholic
Diocese of Palm Beach!
Eyes Raised, Hands Joined, Feet Bare!
As we go through this life, our eyes must be raised to God in heaven in union with all the saints who are there with Him. They must also be raised to the souls, who are in union with the Lord in a special way as they continue to purge themselves of the sins which were part of their lives in this world. To keep our eyes raised is to realize that life goes far beyond what we see each day before us in this world.
Whether you are searching for information about the diocese, parishes, and schools or about the Roman Catholic Church in general, I hope that our diocesan website will be of help to you.
The Diocese of Palm Beach is comprised of five counties in Southeastern Florida: Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River, and Okeechobee. From Sebastian to Boca Raton and from Palm Beach to Pahokee, the 241,100 Catholics of the Diocese of Palm Beach span the economic and cultural spectrum of the area and contribute to a vibrant faith experience in our 50 parishes, 3 missions, and 1 Hispanic Pastoral Center.
Whether you are a full-time resident, a part-time winter resident, or a tourist visiting our area, I pray that you will enjoy your time in the Diocese of Palm Beach, and as you tour our website.
May Mary, Our Lady Queen of the Apostles, patroness of the diocese, guide us in the footsteps of her Son, Jesus Christ.
Sincerely Yours in Christ,
Most Reverend Gerald M. Barbarito
Bishop of Palm Beach
