Welcome to Auckland Catholic Filipino Chaplaincy, most especially, all new Filipino migrants. Our Chaplaincy is established to offer support and a spirit of community to migrants trying to settle in this country. We are here to help and to serve.

     Let us keep our Filipino values and faith alive and vibrant. Together, let us share with joy our rich culture and religious traditions. Likewise, let us learn, appreciate and be enriched by New Zealand's diverse and very interesting custom and traditions. May God bless all our endeavours that they may strengthen our unity and promote more effectively our love and concern for humanity.
