As we begin this feasibility study, I am reminded that “without a vision the people will perish” (Proverbs 29:18). We have experienced significant growth over the past years and now we are called to address the pastoral needs of our divergent parish community by meeting the needs of today and planning for the growth potential of tomorrow.
As I have been privileged to be with you, one challenging question keeps emerging—how can we strengthen our parish life and help more people experience the richness of our Catholic faith? I believe that the proposed parish/community/office center is an integral answer to this question.

I believe, by God’s grace, that our parish is uniquely situated in the local community and that this is the opportune time to provide for the needs of today and tomorrow.
