Have you considered joining a Small Christian Community?

These groups of parishioners gather to share and grow in understanding of the role of Scripture in our lives. These communities are safe places of welcome, support, understanding, and faith sharing. For many, they are often an opportunity to talk about one’s faith journey and the role of faith as we go about meeting the

demands of daily living.

I invite you to prayerfully consider if the Holy Spirit is calling you to join a Small Christian Community.

Small Christian Communities embrace the

following five elements:
