NOTHING LESS THAN SAINTS FOR THE HOLY FAMILY OF GOD
As disciples, we pray daily and attend Mass regularly. We continue learning our faith, and we engage in ministry. Inspired by the Holy Family, we actively encounter Christ by…
- Sharing the Gospel through prayer, Scriptures, and Sacraments
- Forming Intentional Disciples within our parish and community
- Engaging in Fellowship as Catholic Christians
- Serving Others generously and sacrificially
As disciples, Christ invites us to share in His mission. As the Church, we are called to spread the Gospel in word and deed. How will you respond to His call? A variety of opportunities are available here at Holy Family. Find the ministries below that speak to your heart and that you can give your time to. Then complete the mission opportunities form using the “Join us on mission” button. When we receive your form, we will be in touch with more information about the ministries you have expressed an interest in.
