Community

Our parish community warmly welcomes you regardless of your age, ethnicity, or history, and you are invited to participate in any of our groups.

Some of our community groups

The Bible emphasizes the importance of community in the church. In the early days of Christianity, believers gathered in homes to worship together and support one another. This shows how being part of a group helps us grow spiritually and stay connected with each other.

​

We couldn't possibly enumerate every group on this page as it would result in an extensive list. If you do not belong to any of the mentioned groups, there's no need to fret.

Children & Families

Our parish has numerous families with young children who enjoy participating in our Sunday Celebrations. One way for these families to get involved is through our Children's Liturgy, where the Gospel is explained at their level during Mass.

Youth group

Youth

Our belief is that being empowered to use one's gifts in serving others and in leadership is a crucial aspect of the faith and life journey. Our goal is to involve them in the life of the Church, not only in the future but also in the present.

Young Adults

Our community of young adults is currently in development, but we extend an invitation to anyone between the ages of 18 and 30 to join us as a small group. Similar to our youth groups, our community provides a space where we can delve into our faith. Whether you're just beginning your journey or have been on it for some time, we welcome you to come and spend time with us.

Older Generation

The elderly members of our community serve as its foundation. They have imparted their beliefs to the younger generation and persistently pray for them and our parish.

Given that many of them have retired, they can devote their time to serving the community by volunteering for organizations like St Vincent de Paul. In addition, we offer opportunities for our senior citizens to come together and participate in different activities.
