Children’s
Faith Formation and Liturgy of the Word
Working together
with parents, we assist our children to come to experience God in their
lives and to familiarize them with the beliefs and traditions of the
Catholic Church. Programs include weekend classes and a Liturgy of the
Word especially for children celebrated at Sunday’s 10:30am Mass.
Faith to
Justice
Join with fellow parishioners striving to embrace a "faith that
does justice" through prayer & reflection, education, and action.
Outreach opportunities include preparing and serving meals to those
in our community in need.

Parishioners donate food each week to provide food bags for those in
need. Over 70 bags of groceries are distributed each month. Donations
barrels are at church entrances.
Gay & Lesbian Ministry
Our mission is to provide a loving and safe environment which promotes
full membership in the Body of Christ and the Church through education
and understanding of Church teachings, mutual support and conversation;
outreach to our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters; and social events
