The Diocese of Broken Bay

The Diocese of Broken Bay was formally established on 28 May 1986 with Bishop Patrick Murphy installed as first Bishop.

Thirty nine parishes from the Archdiocese of Sydney provided a ready local basis for the new Diocese.

Bishop Murphy retired in 1996 and was succeeded by Bishop David Walker who was ordained a Bishop on 3 September 1996.

After seventeen years the youngest Diocese of the Catholic Church in Australia is forging its own history and identity.

Geographically the Diocese covers a big area from North Sydney to the Central Coast – 2,763 square kilometers. The Diocese is made up of the Northern, Peninsula and Central Coast Region.
