Parish Ministries
Our community has a number of ways for you to share your gifts and talents with others! Check out the ministries and programs below to see what you might be interested in, and if you would like more information please call the parish office or fill out the form below!
Sharing Christ's love with others
One of the most important ways that we spread the Gospel message is to show people how we love. This then might inspire them to ask why we love. Why we love the poor, the stranger, the least among us. Inspiring this question leads to the answer that we love the way we do because our Lord fills our hearts with that kind of love, and we must share that love with all our brothers and sisters in the world.
Take a look below at some of the ways we share our love through service to others inside and outside of our community, and consider getting involved in one or more of these important programs!

Serving others by teaching the Gospel
To know the Lord is to love the Lord. We learn this from the First Epistle of St. John. Sharing that knowledge - that love - with those who are seeking the Lord is one of the most important parts of our lives as Christians. Consider getting involved in teaching the faith to those who are searching to find God in the world!
