EASTER MESSAGE FROM ARCHBISHOP HENNING

Christ is Risen! Christ is truly Risen! This ancient Christian greeting expresses the foundation of our Easter joy and our singing the praises of God. As you gather in Church and around the family table this day, I wish every blessing for you and yours. I pray that you always know this Easter truth that we are not alone in a cold universe. Rather we are enfolded in the arms of a loving Father. He Who created life now shows His power to renew and restore life. May that life be yours now and in eternity.

Our Mission is to make active disciples of Jesus Christ by creating a welcoming community rich in spirituality and by moving people to share their God-given talents in the service of others and the care of creation.  We are an intentionally inclusive Roman Catholic parish that welcomes all those who make up our diverse community in a way that reflects God’s love. Nourished by the Gospel and the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, we strive to build a vibrant parish that strengthens our faith and elevates our worship.
