Building Relationships, Sharing Faith, Growing Together

✨ From the Pastor’s Desk

“Welcoming One Another as Christ Welcomes Us” – Part II
Continuing our 60th Anniversary theme, Fr. Skip reflects on hospitality as a ministry that turns strangers into friends and friends into family. He highlights four ways to grow this mission: ministries that build relationships, a culture of invitation, practical ideas for parish connection, and grounding everything in prayer and the sacraments.
