We invite everyone to join together and participate in securing the future of the Parish. We ask that you prayerfully consider how you and your family can help your Parish by financially supporting our ministries, furthering our mission, and reinforcing our future.
Dear Parish Family,
It is a joy and privilege to be your pastor. We live in one of the fastest growing areas in our Diocese; there are new developments all around us. Our primary responsibility is to evangelize, to draw everyone into a loving and personal relationship with Jesus Christ through the family of the Church. We are so blessed to know Jesus Christ, to be His disciples in today’s world, to celebrate the gift and promise of eternal life through the waters of baptism. We want everyone to realize they are eternally loved by God through His Son, Jesus Christ, to know the truth and joy of the Gospel, to recognize their dignity and worth, and create a more just and loving world. This is our mission.
Even though we see our parish growing, we are not complacent. After much prayer and reflection, I firmly believe it is the right time to launch an Increased Offertory Program in conjunction with ‘Our Sunday Visitor’ under the title ‘Increase Our Faith’ (Luke 17:5). This is a grace filled opportunity to reflect on the gift of stewardship, how we offer our time, talent, and treasure to honor God and in service of others. This is an invitation to reflect on our weekly offering, used to support and advance the mission of our parish, and the use of our gifts and talents in service of others.
We ask the Lord to increase our faith and dispel fear. Christ invites us to step out into the deep for the sake of the Kingdom. We expect Christ to challenge us, to move us out of our comfort zones, to increase our faith. If we have faith, nothing is impossible. We are committed to the mission Christ has entrusted into our fragile hands. Thank you for your continued love and generosity. We are blessed by God and through each other!
In Christ,
Fr. Gary (Dowsey), Pastor
