Community Ministries
Our Church Ministries are designed to assist each parishioner with spiritual development.
These ministries have been found to be necessary to serve the various populations of our parish, families, youth, elderly, etc.
They are led by trusted and informed individuals, who can make the process both enjoyable and complete.
Every detail in the development of our ministries has been considered, and our ultimate goal is the fulfillment of the recipient in the total Catholic experience.
Though we have a diverse offering of ministries for parishioners and our community, we are always open to developing needs and ministries. If there is a ministry not listed here, which you feel called to lead, get in touch with us!
Please contact the Church for referrals to any or all of our Ministries.
