St. John XXIII Catholic Parish

16800 Miramar Parkway Miramar, FL 33027

Founded in 2002 in Miramar, the parish, Blessed John XXIII, adopted its patron’s motto: “That All May Be One,” apt for a multi-cultural parish attracting Hispanic, Asian, Filipino, Haitian, and Anglo worshipers.

Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Parish

11691 NW 25 St. Doral, FL 33172

Established in 2001, Our Lady of Guadalupe serves Catholics in Doral, a city as young as the parish. Led by founding pastor Msgr. Tomas M. Marin, the city’s first Catholic parish attracted more than 3,000 families from 44 countries in a short time. Mass was celebrated at the Eugenia B. Thomas Elementary School cafeteria until December 2015, when the parish, under its second pastor, Father Israel Mago, dedicated its permanent church, chapel and parish center, located on the corner of N.W. 25th Street and 116th Avenue.

St. Edward Catholic Parish

19000 Pines Boulevard, Prembroke Pines, FL 33029

Founded in 1995 with Father Michael J. Eivers as the first pastor, Saint Edward parish comprises the entire city of Pembroke Pines west of Interstate 75, one of the fastest growing areas of Florida. The parish celebrated its first Mass at a cinema with 50 worshipers in attendance, but within six months, outgrew the space.

St. Bonaventure Catholic Parish

1301 SW 136th Avenue. Davie, FL 33325

Established in 1985 when founding pastor Edmond Prendergast began inviting families to join the newly-created “parish family,” Saint Bonaventure grew rapidly. The first Mass was celebrated at the Flamingo Elementary School with approximately 150 people attending a Saturday evening service and another 100 at a service on the following Sunday morning.

St. Vincent Catholic Church

6350 NW 18th St, Margate, FL 33063

Established in 1960, Saint Vincent serves Margate area Catholics. The first Mass was celebrated under a donated tent, but within a year, parishioners had constructed a church.
