MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Most of our families are only able to pay about one half of the actual cost per child to run these programs. We invite you to help us raise the remainder and to help make-up the difference.

HELP WITH THE PURCHASE OF BIBLES

 

 

Welcome and thank you for your interest in learning about the faith development of our parish community. It is in serving the poor and the marginalized, in gathering to tell our stories, and in breaking bread together that our parish community finds meaning to Christ's mandate "Do this in memory of me." This understanding of sharing word and breaking bread gives life to our celebration of the Eucharist, to our evangelizing and catechetical activities, our sacramental programs, our missions and novenas, and to the many expressions of faith and culture that we call popular religiosity. Join us through these pages to learn more about how we foster the development of faith in our community and know that you are always welcome to join us in person in this journey of faith.
