We are a worshipping parish centered
on Jesus Christ and dedicated to living and sharing our Catholic
faith. We believe in the Great Command, the mission of Jesus
Christ, to go into the world, to teach and to baptize
in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
We believe that here in the parish of Saint Raphael's there
is much to be done to fulfill that command although a great
deal of good work has already been accomplished.
We ask you to look at the numerous opportunities
that are available to contribute to our mission. We are blessed
that we have a very large parish with many resources, but
we also have many more obligations as a result. We have a
Social Concerns Committee
that always needs additional members to serve those in distress
in the community; an Evangelization Committee, and Marriage
and Family Ministry to name just a few.
We particularly invite you to join with us
in one of our many liturgies
on Sunday or daily Mass at 6:30 and 9 am. We encourage you to consider attending Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament on Tuesday at 6:45 pm with Novena and Benediction at 7:30 pm and on Thursday following the 9:00 am Mass through Benediction at 7:15 pm.
I want to personally welcome you to Saint
Raphael's parish. I hope you will join us in worship and service.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate
to contact me.
