St Johns Anglican Cathedral Parramatta

Welcome to Parramatta

We are a community for the people of Parramatta, as well as many who live beyond.

At the heart of the city, we gather each week to GROW as disciples of Jesus, to LOVE others like Jesus, and to TELL the world about Jesus — to see our city transformed by the hope of the risen Christ.
