Sacraments

The sacraments are “efficacious signs of grace, instituted by Christ and entrusted to the Church, by which divine life is dispensed to us”.  Christ was present at the inception of all of the sacraments, which He instituted 2,000 years ago. Christ is also present every time each sacrament is celebrated. The Catholic Church has all of the seven sacraments instituted by Christ, which include Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders and Matrimony. 

Get Involved

God has given each of us gifts in the form of abilities, interest and talents.  The practice of stewardship is the use of our gifts to glorify God and serve others.  Along with providing financial support for our parish, we are each called to share our abilities and talents to support our parish and community.

Religious Education

Religious Education helps us to understand our Catholic faith. We know Jesus and the Bible more deeply. We learn from the wisdom of the saints and other good people. We understand how to celebrate our faith. We grow in our understanding of Church teachings.
