A message from pastor:

Dear Friends,

Greetings in the Lord Jesus Christ! As you see when you enter our sacred space, the baptismal font is the first thing you encounter. What a fine reminder to us all that baptism is the first sacrament of initiation into the Christian Community, and that by our baptism we are called to participate fully in the life and mission of the Church.

Our participation in the Church as lived at St. Patrick Catholic Community begins with the gathering at the Liturgy. Our sacramental celebrations draw us together in prayer and call us to become the transformative presence that the world desires and, indeed, needs. Nourished by Word and Eucharist, we offer ourselves as a community of hospitality, we discern the ways in which we live the value of stewardship, and we take on the task of becoming the visible presence of Christ. Thus we take on ministries of hospitality and faith formation, presence and healing, care for those in difficulties whether spiritual or material, action and advocacy, outreach and assistance, counseling and support, solidarity and service, all the while demonstrating our care for the dignity of the human person from conception to natural death. We serve, knowing that the Christian life is not one of spectatorship, rather it is one that consistently invites our participation and commitment.

This page offers information on the many ways in which the gifts —that is, the passions, skills and experience—of St. Patrick parishioners are shared with the community. May it serve as a guide and inspiration for you as you discern the ways in which you participate in the ministry to which your baptism has invited you.

Peace in Christ,
Fr. Eric Tellez
Pastor
