Deaneries are subdivisions of a diocese, consisting of several parishes. The Bishop appoints a dean to preside over a deanery. (Fr. Anthony Coppola- Appointed by Bishop Gregory Parkes to preside over the Deanery)
Our Deanery, called the North Central, is composed of 9 parishes and 3 missions. Our goal is to work together to better support the spiritual needs of our growing communities and the initiatives set by Bishop Gregory Parkes. In collaboration, we can improve our services by highlighting, promoting, and participating in each other's ministries and events.
