MISSION STATEMENT
We
the people of St. Denis Parish, recognize our call to grow as
a faith community. Accepting the privilege and challenge of this
call:
-
We
celebrate our life of faith through parish liturgy with full
participation of the laity;
-
We
endeavor to respond, in a Christ-like way, to the needs of
all by living the message of the Gospel through a variety
of outreach programs;
-
We
teach the message of the Gospel throughout life's stages of
childhood, adolescence, young adulthood and maturity;
-
We
pray for God's guidance and strength as we progress on our
journey of faith.
When
you hold a banquet,
invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind;
blessed indeed will you be because of their inability to repay
you.
For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.
