Special Moments We Have Shared As A
Parish
Welcome newcomers, current parishioners
and old friends. Hi, My name is Mary. My granddaughter Jaidah and I welcome you to our church and our website. We hope you can
get to know us better by visiting our church if you haven't been.
If you are currently a member, we hope you will enjoy this stroll down
memory lane.

We are always having a great time when
we get together. Here are some of the events on film.
There are opportunities to view these
past events via the services of our Official Parish Photographer, Art
Simpson. When you view the occasions, there will be a notation
where additional pictures are available. For now, sit back and
relax as you reflect on these events. We hope you are here helping
make new memories full of the love of Jesus and neighbor. See you
at Mass and in the church and in the parish hall (soon to be dedicated).
