Dear Friend,

Welcome to Saint John the Evangelist Parish! We are delighted you have joined us, and we hope this packet helps you feel at home here.

Our parish is a place where newcomers, longtime members, and returning Catholics alike are welcomed to grow in faith and find a true sense of belonging. Everything we do flows from a single mission:

OUR MISSION

Empowered by the gifts of the Holy Spirit and transformed by the Eucharist into the Body of Christ, the people of Saint John the Evangelist Parish are called to be ambassadors of Christ. We strive to reach out and encourage others to join us in Christ’s Church. Then, together as one Catholic family, we live a reverent and active sacramental life, provide strong programs of religious education for youth and adults, embrace our apostolic mission of joyfully proclaiming the Gospel and generously share God’s gifts for the good of others.

NEXT STEPS

We offer a full sacramental life, strong programs of religious education for youth and adults, and many opportunities to serve, pray, and gather together. A list of our parish ministries is included on a separate page of this packet.

Please take a moment to let us know you are here. Our online welcome form is the simplest way to register and share your interests — https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1OWTgyrCXvfMhbmDUf0QPXN3OjtmqQ51NFgmyyUpOlhE/viewform?pli=1&pli=1&edit_requested=true

Please feel free to reach out to any member of our staff or to a member of our Welcome Team. We are here to help you take your next step — whether that is signing up for a ministry, registering as a parishioner, asking about becoming Catholic, or simply requesting a home visit. We look forward to growing in faith together with you.

Blessings,

The Welcome Team
