The Evangelization Committee introduced the Family of Faith mission in early 2017.
This newly formed ministry, comprised of a small group of dedicated parishioners, is committed to reaching out to fellow parishioners who've fallen away from our wonderful Church.
To those who have drifted away: we are here to tell you that you have been missed, and we would love to see you come back. We are here to welcome you back with open hearts.
Throughout the year, the Family of Faith group will be holding events to reach out to our parishioners who have been away in hopes that they will come back to the Faith and to our beautiful parish.
The first Family of Faith event, a "Valentine Coffee &", was held in February in the St. Paul Church Hall. Thanks to all who came out to join us on a very cold and snowy Sunday morning, and thanks to members of our Family of Faith team who coordinated this warm, welcoming event!
The group also hosted a Wine and Cheese Gathering on the Parish Green in late September. In contrast to their first event, the weather was perfect. The new Green is the ideal place to hold these types of events and we hope to have many more!
Each one of us has gifts and talents to offer, and we hope all of our parishioners will join us in our efforts to bring others back to the Faith. We can all start by inviting one person back to Mass or to one of our events in the new year.
