New to New Roads? Welcome!
We are the New Roads Catholic Community, and we would love to have you join us.
  • Are you looking for a sense of meaning and belonging?
  • Are you searching for God, or wondering what it would mean to search for God?
  • Do you want to find a safe place for asking questions, sharing struggles, and exploring doubts? 
  • Would you like to find an authentically Catholic community with a fresh, modern perspective? 
  • Have you become disconnected from the Catholic faith? 
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, we hope you will join us at New Roads! We are a community of two parishes, St. Joseph and St. Luke in Belmont, MA, that work together to offer experiences of worship, welcome, and conversation through which you can encounter God and grow in your relationship with God. We believe that true joy and fulfillment are found in knowing and following Jesus, and we want to share that joy and fulfillment with as many people as possible.

We will meet you where you are and help you take your next steps in developing a relationship with God. We affirm the dignity and worth of each person regardless of race, nationality or ethnic group, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status, age, socioeconomic class, married, single, divorced, or anything else. No matter who you are, what your background is, or where you are on your spiritual journey, we’d love to have you join us for worship! 
Instead of being just a church that welcomes and receives by keeping the doors open, let us try also to be a church that finds new roads." Pope Francis
