Catholic Returning Home
Catholics Come Home

Have you drifted away from the Church? Would you like to feel at home in the Catholic Church again?

OR

Do you know someone that has?

OR

Are you a practicing Catholic but would like a refresher on the Catholic Church?

Welcome!

If you are a Catholic who has been away from the Church for a while, this invitation is for you. Our faith community misses you and is incomplete without you. No matter how long you have been away, and for whatever reason, we invite you to consider renewing your relationship with the Catholic Church. We also invite any Catholic who would like a refresher on the
Church—especially if the last time you attended any classes with as a youth!


Please join us for informal listening sessions and an update of the Catholic faith facilitated by various parish staff, parishioners and those who also went through this program.

Parable of the Lost Sheep

Which one of you, having a hundred
sheep and losing one of them,
does not leave the ninety-nine in
the wilderness and go after the one
that is lost until he finds it? When
he has found it, he lays it on his
shoulders and rejoices. And when
he comes home, he calls together
his friends and neighbors, saying to
them, “Rejoice with me, for I have
found my sheep that was lost.” Just
so , I tell you, there will be more
joy in heaven over one sinner who
repents than over ninety-nine righteous
persons who need no repentance.
— Gospel of Saint Luke 15:3-7
