Parish & Community Engagement
From Gospel to Life ... sharing our Time, Talent and Treasure
The parish is where individuals and the Church itself grow as a community of faith, hope, and action. It is where the Gospel is proclaimed and celebrated, where believers are formed and sent to renew the Earth. It is "where God's people meet Jesus in Word and Sacrament and come in touch with the source of the Church's life. It happens through stewardship." Source: USCCB .
"As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God's varied grace." (1 Pt 4:10).

Support
Stewardship requires both the sharing of some time, plus talent (or interest in gaining experience) and financial resources to support parish ministries, facilities and personnel.
You can support the work of the parish financially via the green GIVE button at the top right of many of our web pages. That link takes you to our secure online giving platform where you can schedule weekly and seasonal donations or make one-time gifts. You can also place your donation in the collection box at the entrance to our sanctuary, or in collection baskets passed in the pews during the Offertory at our weekend Masses.
You can also pray for the parish: our leadership, our members, our future.
One last thing
You've probably heard the phrase, "learn by doing". Well, seems that volunteering is a great way to try something new, to learn more deeply, and to live more richly through your experiences in parish ministry. For a quick overview, check out the opportunities at our A-Z Ministry List .
