Welcome to our Parish
“Come to me … for I am gentle and humble of heart” Jesus.
The doors of our church are open every day and you are welcome. All who are coming here for many years would like you to know we would be delighted if you would join us for Masses or for prayers. It is God’s House and He is present to meet you when you come in. You can sit in the quite, ask for help, forgiveness, support, you can say thanks and adore. God’s heart is open to everyone, their prayers, and worries. He would like you to consider His house a place for you to be at home. If you have not been here lately He would welcome you back.
I hope our “regulars” will invite and welcome others to joins us, it is part of our identity as followers of Jesus, to Welcome!
