St. Raphael the Archangel Catholic Church
Description
Mass Times:
SAT - 5 pm
SUN - 7:30, 9, 11 am. A 5 pm Mass is added September-May. Our congregation consists of over six thousand registered members and some two thousand eight hundred families each with their own longing for ongoing personal, emotional and spiritual growth.
Leaders from within our parish have gathered to determine specific directions and goals for our faith community moving forward into this time of renewal. Fr. Doug LeCaptain and a team consisting of parish council members, trustees and staff has worked diligently to identify six specific areas in which our church hopes to see focused growth.
The six areas are as follows, with the the primary stated goal stated following each:
Liturgy... To encourage full, active, conscious participation.
Parish Community... To maintain and develop relationships with all areas of parish community life.
Evangelization... To invite all people to a deeper relationship with God.
Formation & Education... To deepen people’s understanding of Jesus Christ and His Church in order to live Christ’s teaching.
Catholic Identity... To strengthen our participation in the universal Catholic Church.
Fiscal Responsibility... To continue to achieve the church mission through careful financial stewardship.
