For most Catholics, the parish is the single most important part of the Church. This is where the mission of Christ continues. This is where publicly we express our faith, joining with others to give proof of our communion with God and with
each other. The parish is a community of faith. The stronger faith is, the more valuable our parish community becomes.
The priests and staff invite participation in our programs, activities, and ministries as a means of fostering and enriching
the Catholic faith. Risen Christ welcomes all visitors to our area and is happy to have you pray with us.
