      • About Our Parish
    • If you're new to the Catholic Church, or are thinking about joining us for the first time, we want to help you take your next step and find your way to God.

      It doesn’t matter if you are a Catholic who is new to our parish, a Christian of another tradition checking out our Catholic Church, or someone who is neither but somehow you were still drawn here.  No matter who you are or what you may have done, you are welcome here!

  • Catholic, but been away?

    • Why do Catholics leave?

    • Has your Catholicism been "dumbed down?"

    • There’s an old saying that goes, “Once a Catholic, always a Catholic.” Maybe you have been away from the Church for a little while or for quite some time, but now you feel a tug at your heart calling you back to the Catholic Church. Listen to that tug. It’s your Heavenly Father reaching his arms out to you, the Holy Spirit whispering in your ear, hoping to draw you home.

      The first step to coming home is to come to Mass!  All are welcome, even if you've been away from awhile.  Also, please check out Catholics Come Home - a website dedicated to people just like you.
       

    • Why remain Catholic?

    • Do you know what the Eucharist really is?

  • Spiritual but not religious?

    • Being spiritual is good! What exactly do you mean by "spiritual" though? If you spirituality is real, wouldn't you practice it?

      The word "religion" has a bad name and can sometimes conjure ideas of corruption, insititutionalism, etc. However, "religion" is short-hand for all the institutions, practices, and traditions that ground a spirituality.

      If you pick some flowers out of the ground and put them in a vase with water, they'll look pretty good for a few days, but within a handful of days the flowers will be dead because the flowers aren't rooted and grounded in anything.  The proper ground for "spirituality" is Catholic Christianity.

      For a further treatment of this topic, please read Spiritual, But Not Religious, by the Dominicans of the Province of St. Joseph.
