We value community, family, work, and spiritual nourishment as ways that draw us closer to God. We also struggle with such things as crime, racism, family stress, underemployment, and materialism, all of which make it more difficult to live peaceful lives. If you share our values or our struggles, then join us at one of our weekend services. If you prefer, give us a call. We will be glad to hear from you!
The Rite of Sending for RCIA candidate, Steve Larson, will take place at the 10am Mass this weekend. Please pray for Steve as he continues his faith journey toward the celebration of the sacraments at the Easter Vigil.
