 Our Vision
To Know Christ and Make Him Known
 
   
      Our vision — to know Christ and make Him known — represents how we, as a commun­ity, under­stand our lives in Christ. To fulfill its twofold calling, we steadfastly strive to grow in our relation­ship with Jesus Christ and with the world He has called us to serve.

      Consequently, our life and ministry are centered on four components — liturgy (our worship), fellow­ship (our parish life), Christian formation (our continuing education), and mission (our out­reach to those in need) — that we believe are vital to a faithful, healthy, vibrant, effective Body of Christ in the world. These components are represented in our parish logo, based on our church’s symbolic architecture, in which all four find their purpose centered on the cross and on Christ’s love for us.

 

Christianity is the summons to full humanity.
