Each parishioner is invited to take part in a planning-for-mission session called a Parish Summit. This is a 3-hour gathering where together we will seek the Lord’s guidance for the future of our parish.

This time together is not simply about planning; it is more like a mini retreat. It is first about encountering Christ in prayer and listening for the voice of the Holy Spirit. Through prayer, reflection, and discussion, we will consider how God is calling us to become a true center of mission in our community.

Parish Summit Overview
• Formation Video from Bishop Andrew Cozzens
• Parish & Diocesan Facts
• Eucharistic Adoration & Guided Prayer
• Small Group Discussion
• Large Group Sharing
• Closing Prayer & Sending Forth

Your input matters. Parish leaders will gather feedback from this time of prayer and discernment for current parish decisions and future diocesan planning.

Because of your incredible kindness and generosity, these bright young students will head off to their very first day of school with brand-new backpacks filled with everything they need to learn and grow.

​Starting school is a major milestone, and thanks to your support, these children can walk through the classroom doors with confidence and excitement. Thank you for surrounding our young neighbors with love and encouragement as they begin their educational journey!
