The Diocese of Westminster is made up of an incredibly diverse range of people from all countries and nationalities and everyone is welcome to participate in their local parish. However, in addition, the ethnic chaplaincies in the Diocese seek to provide sacramental and pastoral support for people of all languages and cultures and to help preserve and nourish the different cultural expressions of faith and community.
