You can't spend all this time with The Lord and not be changed. (The April and May retreats are full. The June 10th – 13th has openings). Be prepared to be surprised!
SOCIAL COMMUNICATIONS
In today's world of social media communications many of our parishioners are staying in touch with their family and friends through Facebook. So in order to bring the Good News through the social media and reach out to those seeking a spiritual home we set up the Facebook page for our parish. Please feel free to message us your
thoughts, suggestions, and reflections regarding this page.
We have a coffee hour on the last Sunday of the month, organized in the St. Patrick's school gym. This is intended to foster friendship, fellowship and deeper relations amoung parishioners and informally to exchange views on issues important to us

REPAIR WORK CONTINUES
The repair work to our Church continues and she needs your help. Giving is way down, but these repairs are necessary to ensure that the structure is sound. As stewards of the Church it is vital that she maintain a dynamic presence and remain a beacon of hope for the lost and suffering in our community. Please prayerfully consider increasing your weekly offering to help continue this mission. Please also consider offering your time and talent serving others in one of the rewarding volunteer ministries going on at the Church.
