As we pass on our Catholic heritage from one generation to the next, we are called by Jesus to be a living community of God's people through worship, teaching, and service.  Our mission is to:

  • Worship through prayer, liturgy, and sacraments.
  • Nurture our Catholic life and live the Gospel of Jesus as Catholic individuals, families and parish community.
  • Continually renew our faith as we grow to understand its significance in our daily Christian life.
  • Reach out and share faith-filled lives within our parish and to care for each other as Jesus taught us to care for others beyond our community.
