The two other parishes in the south of the island are: Malew and Santon, and Castletown and Arbory. Together, the three parishes form the Southern Mission Partnership.

History
St. Mary’s Church was built so that the residents of Port St Mary did not have to travel to the Parish Church as this was ‘very inconvenient for them, especially in the winter season’. The site was given by Mrs EM Gawne of Kentraugh and the building was paid for by public subscription. Bishop Rowley Hill consecrated the church on 25 January 1884.
