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.”

And so I say to you, you are Peter,

and upon this rock I will build my Church,

and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it.

I will give you the keys to the Kingdom of heaven.

Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven;

and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

~Matthew 16

Dear Saint Kateri School Families and Parishioners, 

I share my heartfelt gratitude for the years of joy and faith we’ve experienced within the halls of Saint Kateri School. Though it brings great sadness to see this chapter end, we trust that God will continue to walk with each of us, guiding our steps with His loving hand.

I am especially grateful to our Saint Kateri School families who entrusted us with the education and spiritual formation of their children. Your commitment, especially through a year marked by deep challenges and difficult transitions, demonstrates your love and commitment to your children.

To our dedicated teachers and staff, your devotion and compassion have not gone unnoticed. You have poured yourselves into the lives of our students, helping them grow in wisdom and faith. A special thank you to our school Principal, Anthony Reale for his leadership during this time.

To our parishioners, thank you for helping sustain the mission of Saint Kateri School, especially through financial hardships and deficits. Your generosity reflects the strength and unity of our parish family.

Please know that Saint Kateri Tekakwitha Parish is always faithfully here for you.

With prayers for a peaceful summer and a hopeful heart for all that lies ahead,

May God Bless You,

Fr. Gonyo

Congratulations and may God’s blessings be upon:

Please remember in prayer our Beloved who have recently passed away:

OCIA is for:

• Anyone who is curious about the Catholic Church
• Anyone who is interested in becoming Catholic
