FAMILY LIFE
MISSION STATEMENT
We
believe that the family is the domestic Church
and the basic unit of society.
We commit ourselves to making family
life a priority in our lives.
We pledge to use
our time and talents
to assist in strengthening, healing,
and celebrating the vocation
of marriage and family in our
parish.
We will listen to the concerns and
needs of families. We will respond
to families using these means:
* like-to-like support and ministries
* written materials
* referral to resources outside the parish.
We will collaborate with our
pastor, staff and
existing parish ministries in accomplishing our mission.
We build this ministry upon the
Church’s teaching about family,
the guidance of the Holy Spirit
and the gifts given to us
for service in our parish community.
