As the body of Christ, we are active in our parish and in our neighborhood. We want to bring this amazing love of Christ, which we bring into our hearts through being in community and by receiving the sacrament of Holy Eucharist– and we would love for you to join us!
Mother Barbara and others are very happy to meet with you to hear your yearnings or your hopes for how to be involved in our ministries. We want you to offer all that you have in your heart (which can be a tiny amount if your life is already very full — or you may want to give a great deal of your time, talent, and energy to developing our reach into the lives of others.)
