Parish Communications: Spreading the word

The website redesign in 2022 has been the catalyst for an increased focus on connecting with you across multiple platforms.
- Our weekly bulletin is available in hardcopy at all Masses and on the website. This is great for those who prefer a paper copy to keep up to date on all upcoming events going on in the Parish.
- Our website is our primary form of communication, with the most up to date information and everything you need right at your fingertips – whether you are at your computer or on the go.
- Our weekly emails are a vital form of communication that will deliver the most up to date information about Parish and Center events straight to your inbox three times a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday).
- You can find us on Facebook to learn about upcoming events and to view all livestreamed church events.
- Our Realm database is another great way you can learn about upcoming events, and this is where you will register for those events! To make sure that your profile is up to date, follow the instructions on this page.
