The Elderly: That the elderly, sustained by
families and Christian communities, may apply their wisdom and experience to spreading the faith and forming the new generations.

Let us pray for our parishioners who are sick, for those affected by layoffs and unemployment, for all who grieve the death of loved ones, for our departed faithful and for peace in the world.

  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 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 for ever.

OFFICE OF CARE
His Excellency Bishop Paul Hinder, the Apostolic Vicar, in his commitment to creating a safe environment for all God's children and to care for them, has established the Office of Care. 
This Office works for the protection of minors and the vulnerable adults by providing them a safe environment within the Apostolic Vicariate of Southern Arabia (AVOSA). This involves responding to any allegations of sexual misconduct or abuse of minors or vulnerable adults by priests, deacons, religious, and lay persons who are at the service of AVOSA at the parish or Vicariate level as employees or as volunteers.
Reports of abuse of minors and vulnerable persons or allegations of any sexual misconduct can be addressed to the AVOSA Office of Care. While necessary confidentiality is assured, anonymous information will not be entertained.
