Returning
to the church?
- If you are a Catholic who has been away from the Church, this invitation is
for you. Our faith community misses you and is incomplete without you. No matter how long you have been away, and for whatever reason, we invite you to consider
renewing your relationship with our Lord through the Catholic Church. Please join us for informal listening sessions and updates on our Catholic
faith. The sessions are conducted in a support-group format so that everyone will feel at home in the Church.
