For over fifty years, Our Lady of Mount Carmel has been served by a large number of Carmelites who have always put the needs of their parishioners before all else. Since becoming a parish, Wentworthville has had ten parish priests, nine of them being Carmelites.

Our parish is now awaiting the appointment of a new parish priest. Our former pastor, Fr Denis Andrew OCarm, was recently elected by the Carmelite Province of Australia and East Timor to be their new leader (Prior Provincial). Also assisting our Carmelites in the Parish Team is our parish secretary, Lyn Bryant.

The Parish Office is open from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.., Monday to Friday.
