If you have been away from the Catholic Church, we invite you to consider returning.  
It is never too late to come home...

God's mercy is much greater than any reason you may have for drifting away from practicing your faith.  Whether your reason for leaving was from great hurt or loss, whatever it may be, the healing love of God is waiting for you.  Maybe you question what returning to your faith will mean for your life?  The Church has answers.

Jesus told the story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15 to illustrate how God the Father responds when one of his children squanders his inheritance.

"But while he was yet at a distance, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. And the son said to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son." But the father said to his servants, "Bring quickly the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet; and bring a fatted calf and kill it and let us eat and make merry; for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found."
-Luke 15:20-24

As illustrated in this story, God's reaction is just like this, welcoming us with open arms and restoring us as His children.

So, what do you do now?

If you’re a Catholic and you’ve been away for a while, all you really need to do is go to Confession to begin practicing your faith.  You may also want to talk to Father to find out if there is anything else you need to do and to help you connect with other members of our parish.

If you are not Catholic but would like to join the faith, please reach out to Father about our RCIA program!

We hope you make the decision to come back home.  We’d love to have you as part of our parish family as we follow Jesus!
