Welcome to Sohar Parish!
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the website of St. Anthony’s Roman Catholic Church Sohar, whether you are newly arrived in our parish, or already an active member of the parish family, or you are in search of a parish family! I am convinced that God has a plan for you to become involved in the worship and ministries of the church.
Our parish is part of the Apostolic Vicariate of Southern Arabia, a territorial jurisdiction of the Latin Rite in the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Yemen.
How pleasant it is to live, love and pray together as one parish community! I invite you to review our website and become an active member of the parish community. You are most welcome to offer your many talents in service to this parish.
May the Lord Jesus Christ, be amongst you, to defend you; within you, to preserve you; before you, to guide you; after you, to guard you; above you, to bless you; who with the Father and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns forever.
Fr. Baby Mathew, OFM Cap.
Parish Priest
