Bishop Parkes is calling for the protection of human life at its most vulnerable stage – in the womb.

The generosity that you have shown through your support of our ministry and services here has enriched lives.

The sacred mission of the Diocese of St. Petersburg calls us to proclaim the Good News and invite all.

Pope Francis appointed Most Reverend Gregory L. Parkes on November 28, 2016.

God calls each of us to a loving relationship with Him. During Lent, we focus in an intentional way.

What am I thankful for this year (and always)? You!
