A Community-Wide Event
God is calling our parish to come together and to bring home all of those we know who need the new life that Jesus wants to pour into each of us through this parish mission called RESTORED.
We believe we can cooperate with God’s grace best when we serve as the hands and feet of Jesus. Now comes this opportunity to grow the body of Christ that is this parish family and to find what God has in store for us who will encounter a renewed sense of belonging, personal growth, and reliance on Jesus Christ.
Your participation in this parish event is critical to creating a stronger community. We are simply asking you to invest a Friday night and a Saturday morning. Please invite your family, friends, and those “I know them but I don’t know them” acquaintances to join you at this mission, bringing new faces into this community of faith. Finally, be open to God’s call to renew your faith, your trust, your relationships, and our pastorate community. You are welcome to come to all or just part of the mission.
Please help us plan ahead by registering here! -

Mission Prayer
Please pray with us for the success of the mission to restore, reinvigorate, and set our hearts on fire:
Restore us, O Lord. Let your face shine on us, lighting the way home from all the places we have been scattered.
Create in us clean hearts and renewed spirits, that we may come together to be your disciples, worship you, serve you and each other, and be your people. In Jesus’ mighty name. AMEN
