We, the Catholic community of St. Paul, are building the kingdom of God through celebration of Sacraments, faith formation, support of one another, the sharing of gifts and evangelization.

We have added a new section to this website to assist you, it is online forms.  This section can be found under the "eCommunity" tab above.  If there are additional forms you would like us to add please let us know.

COME JOIN US SUNDAY, MAY 20TH AT 5:00PM FOR OUR FIRST  MASS.

A youth-focused Mass is nothing more than a vibrant liturgy that speaks to young people and challenges them to live as Disciples of Christ. It is NOT limited to just teenagers, people of all ages can and are encouraged to attend this Mass. Be aware the energy, reverence and prayerfulness that teens bring to the celebration are contagious.

Within a youth-focused Mass, the teens are addressed directly at the homily. The Gospel is broken open for the teens about how relevant it is for their lives. Teens are drawn to the truth as the homily gives them the truth of our faith. People of all ages will be transformed by the message.

To bring the liturgy to life for teens, youth Masses use musical instruments that teens are used to hearing on a daily basis. The tone remains prayerful and the music selection call the congregation into deeper prayer, not distract from it.

You must believe that liturgy can speak to teens. And you must believe that teens are worth speaking and listening to. They are not the Church of tomorrow; they are the Church of today. We must believe in them and in their sincerity. We must talk openly with them about the issues that touch their lives. We must proclaim the truth with love to the teens. Good Liturgy can and will transform the youth of our parish.

Bishops issue call to action on HHS mandate

The U.S. bishops have issued a call to action to defend religious liberty and urged laity to work to protect the First Freedom of the Bill of Rights. They outlined their position in “Our First, Most Cherished Freedom.” The document was developed by the Ad Hoc Committee on Religious Liberty of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). The bishops called for “A Fortnight for Freedom,” the two-week period from June 21 to July 4—beginning with the feasts of St. Thomas More and St. John Fisher and ending with Independence Day—to focus “all the energies the Catholic community can muster” for religious liberty. They also asked that, later in the year, the feast of Christ the King be “a day specifically employed by bishops and priests to preach about religious liberty, both here and abroad.”

The May Golden Hearts social will be a pot luck supper on Friday, May 18, 2012.  Set-up will be at 4:30pm and dinner at 5:30pm.  Please bring your favorite meat, salad or pasta dish to share.  Drinks and desserts will be furnished.  Please come out to join the fun and comaraderie and play Bingo.
