Parish Mission: ELEVATE
As we return to our newly renovated church, something has changed.
The tabernacle stands at the center.
The art lifts our eyes.
Everything draws us more clearly to Jesus.
This renovation isn’t just about what’s changed around us—it’s about what God wants to renew within us.
Elevate is our 2026 parish mission to pause, refocus, and prepare our hearts for the coming ressurection of Christ by placing Him back at the center of our lives.
Join Catholic speaker, professor, and musician Deacon Bob Rice for two reflections, adoration, and more:
The Beauty of Creation
The Re-Creation of Beauty
Together, we’ll explore how beauty forms us as disciples, why reverence matters, and how renewal in worship leads to renewal in life.

Night to Shine is a prom night centered on God’s love for people with special needs. It’s an evening where every guest is celebrated, honored, and treated like royalty—from the red carpet welcome to music, dinner, and dancing. The night ends with every guest crowned king or queen, reminding them (and all of us) of their God-given dignity and worth. Families and caregivers are cared for too, making it a night of joy, belonging, and grace for everyone involved.
Come support our community on the red carpet!
