emphasizing a deeper
understanding of the faith.
“A parish mission allows
you to take time to look at
your life, values and direction,”
he said. “It encourages
you to ask: ‘What is really
important to me? What am I
doing with my life? What
values do I have? Where does
God fit into my life? What
does my faith, my Church,
mean to me?’”
The public is invited to attend

the church, 215 East Front
