Welcome to Holy Family Parish
Parish Mission
Affirming our common Baptismal call to holiness and discipleship, we at Holy Family Parish strive to deepen our communion with Christ and His Church, by worshipping God through Word and Sacrament, serving our community with God's healing compassion and love, giving freely what we have received, nurturing our children in faith, and respecting the dignity of all human life. In this we hope always to be a sign of the saving power of God in the world, by inviting all people to journey with us spreading God's presence to all who yearn to see His face.

The Bible Point is "Shine God's Light" and the key Bible verse is "The Lord Lights Up My Darkness" (2 Samuel 22:29). The next Planning Meeting is Wednesday, June 19. at 6:30 p.m. in St. Joseph Church Hall. We are in need of volunteers to help with our Bible Camp this year. Volunteers who are planning on helping are asked to make every effort to be at this meeting.
We are in need of more children to be part of this fun-filled 3 days. Sign up your children now! Vacation Bible Camp flyers with Registration forms on the reverse side are located at the church entrances.
Catholicism in the Year of Faith
With his Apostolic Letter of October 11, 2011, Pope Benedict XVI declared a "Year of Faith" to begin on October 11, 2012 and conclude on November 24, 2013. This year, he hopes, will provide a "New impetus to the Mission of the whole Church to lead us out of the desert in which we often find outselves, to the place of life, of friendship with Christ."
In the light of this opportunity to deepen one's faith, Father Bob recommends Father Barron's series and corresponding study program "Catholicism". The Catholicism study program is the true story of the Catholic faith. This multi-media educational program reveals the truth, beauty and goodness of the faith in an unprecedented way. Father Bob's talks will continue in Septmeber 2013.
