Welcome to St. Patrick
We’re glad that you are here! We seek to be a community of Christian Disciples in Mission who gather to hear the Word of God, feast at the table of the Lord, and be sent forth empowered by the Holy Spirit. Our Catholic faith is at it’s best when we encounter people with an openness to hear their stories, see God already working in their lives, and ,without judgement, invite them into a spiritual home. Being created by God means that one discovers they belong to God’s family. We do not see our Sacraments as a reward for good behavior, but rather as means for healing and nourishment for one on life’s long journey. We walk together to deepen our relationship with God. We invite everyone to simply come and see what it means to follow Jesus Christ by living with a community of believers.
