Mission Statement

Our Vision Friends and neighbors joyfully sharing and living the Gospel and the transforming love of Jesus Christ through our Parish Family



Our Mission To invite and welcome people of all ages, backgrounds and walks of life to embrace and celebrate our vocations.  "To be Christ to the world.”

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom should I fear? The LORD is my life’s refuge; of whom should I be afraid? One thing I ask of the LORD; this I seek: to dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, that I may gaze on the loveliness of the LORD and contemplate his temple. Hear, O LORD, the sound of my call; have pity on me, and answer me. Of you my heart speaks; you my glance seeks. 

~Psalm 27

Dear Parishioners and Friends,

After celebrating Ascension Thursday on May 14th, our

Sunday readings are now taken from the 7th Sunday of

Easter.  

This Sunday on May 17th at 6pm, at Christ the King church, our local volunteer Fire Departments will be holding their

combined Annual Memorial Prayer Service for deceased Volunteer Fire Fighters which will include volunteer Fire

Fighters from Saint Kateri Parish. The names will be read along with the tolling of a bell. Our town community is

grateful to the men and women who put themselves in harm's way to protect and serve.

Bishop Kearney senior high school students have helped

organize a day of Eucharistic Adoration at the Bishop

Kearney Chapel this Monday May 18th. Please pray for the

students at Bishop Kearney and especially for those soon

graduating.

There will be a second collection during all Masses this weekend for the Missionary Works of the Sisters of St. Joseph and the Sisters of Mercy. 

May God bless you!  

Fr. Gonyo
