Parish Needs

Blessed Sacrament and Meditation Chapel

In previous years, much discussion has occurred regarding a chapel/prayer room for the Blessed Sacrament. At the main entrance to the church, where the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe and the confessionals are, we imagine creating a sacred space for the Blessed Sacrament and quite area for private devotion and prayer. The sanctuary (the worship space with ambo, altar and presider’s chair) will be dedicated to the celebration of the event of the Eucharist.

Faith Formation

Our parish is committed to providing faith formation to all of our parishioners, regardless of their age and abilities. Maintaining and enhancing our team and this ministry will ensure we all have the opportunity to deepen our encounters with Christ.

Heating System

Our heating system no longer efficiently moderates the temperature in the church during the coldest months of the year. Installing a new HVAC system will make our worship experience more comfortable.

Youth and Young Adult Ministry

Pope Francis has called on us all to enhance youth ministry opportunities for teenagers and young adults during these critical years. Strengthening our youth ministry with staff and resources will ensure we are engaging the next generation of our Church.

A Bold Plan of Renewal

We — the Catholic faithful — are the agents of renewal for Church and society. I am grateful for this opportunity to walk alongside clergy and parishioners in strengthening our parishes and ministries, the heart of our Archdiocese.
