Our Parish Vision

Transforming Lives

This is the fruit of our Parish Vision. It is when someone with little or no faith has been introduced to Jesus Christ and they believe and humbly accept Him into their lives. Jesus’ mission is for all people to know and to love God.

Making Church Matter

Helping people feel comfortable and welcomed at our Masses, ensuring that the words to prayers and music are readily accessible, that they are moved by an inspired homily, uplifted by beautiful music, and leave with a desire to want to come back.

Building Disciples

We want to inspire, motivate and equip our parishioners to go out and speak about their faith to the unchurched and de-churched. Whether through prayer, serving others through ministry, or entering deeper into their faith through Bible studies or other opportunities to grow, we want to make disciples among us. In doing so, we want our financial resources, God-given talents, and hard work to make a difference towards these disciple-making goals.

Seeking and Saving the Lost

Jesus gave us the task of discipling all nations (Matt.28:18-20). If we are to follow His mission of evangelization, we cannot wait for those who do not know him to arrive at our church doorstep.  Rather, we must be actively seeking those around us, family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, and acquaintances who do not know Christ so we can help them to know Him.
