  Church Foundation

     Our Church is Founded upon the Rock of God’s Word and the Covenant Jesus made for Man with His Blood

     Newmachar Parish Church is a true family church. 

     Each member has a part to play to support the family as a whole.

     To better understand how this family unity works, it is necessary to understand each member’s task to ensure continued  enrichment for all.
