We heard your feedback that communication needs to be improved within our Parish. Our first step in improving communication is to find out how best to reach you and what forms of communication you prefer. In order to obtain this information our Parish Council has developed a 2020 Census form. We will be using information collected from the census to build a new Parish database. Because this is a new database all households will be required to respond to the census. Start your household registration here.Read More

About
“We must create a “culture of encounter,” a culture of friendship,a culture in which we find brothers and sisters,in which we can also speak with those who think differently,as well as those who hold other beliefs,who do not have the same faith.They all have something in common with us:they are images of God; they are children of God.”Pope Francis

“May the Church
be a place of mercy and of hope in God,
where everyone can feel welcomed, loved,
forgiven and encouraged to live the good life of the Gospel.
And to feel welcomed, loved, forgiven, encouraged,
the Church’s doors must be open,
so that all may come
and that we can go out of those doors
and proclaim the Gospel!”
-- Pope Francis
