St Catherine of Alexandria in Gracemount Edinburgh.
Located on the south side of Edinburgh between Liberton and South House.
A well established Parish with a welcoming communtiy
St Catherine’s Parish is a community of Catholic Christians who choose
to celebrate their faith with one another and with those who would like
to be able to celebrate but are unable to do so for whatever reason. We
aspire to support and encourage at a social and spiritual level all of our
members in the challenges we face in life. We are especially committed to
those who are lacking in the necessities for a life with dignity at home
and throughout the world. We have a particular interest in the children
of Siret Orphanage and the faith community of Darmanesti, both of which
are in Romania.
St Catherine’s Faith Community is served by a Pastoral Team consisting
of Sister Mary Steedman, a Sister of Mercy from the community at Lauriston
in Edinburgh and Father Mike Fallon who lives in the Parish House.
