Vision Statement
The desire of our hearts is to be a vibrant sacramental Catholic community that prays, learns, and serves to witness to the power of God in our lives and in the world.
Mission Statement
We believe that we are a people called by God to be the church of Jesus Christ in our place and time. Our mission – as persons, as families, as a community of faith – is to respond to God’s call with personal commitment and communal action by: Proclaiming the life-giving Good News of the Gospel by what we say and what we do. Educating youth and adults with God’s word from the Bible and church teaching and relating these truths to daily life.
Building a community of faith based on the Eucharist and sacramental worship, personal prayer, caring, forgiveness, and bearing one another’s burdens.
Serving the world, that is, all our sisters and brothers whom God loves and for whom Christ died. We are called to respect the dignity of all people and their needs regardless of race, color, or creed.
