We are an active parish offering daily mass (excluding Monday's) and providing residents and parishioners with many religious and community events and services throughout the year.

We are blessed as a school community to have our school named after Mother Teresa. She will always be a model of faith, hope, love and service to our community. Mother Teresa's spirit will walk with us always as we follow in the footsteps of Christ. The words of Mother Teresa, found in the front foyer of our school, and in the chapel, are constant reminders of our call as a Catholic community to connect our faith tradition to our learning environment.Mother Teresa Catholic School was built in 1998. The school serves the students of the west side of the Town of Bradford West Gwillimbury as well as the rural area northwest of the town. As a faith community we work closely with the Holy Martyrs of Japan Parish to share Jesus' teachings with our students.
