Email groups

Being a dynamic and active parish, parishioners also have many organizations in which they can participate, and using email groups is an important way to stay in touch. The parish uses an email system that allows individuals to specify their own frequency of receiving email messages, which can be personalized for each different group to which a parishiner belongs. Each group also has an internal webpage with information private for each group.

To join

To become a member of one of the groups listed below, a person must be approved by the parish office to be part of the main parish email group. From there, a parishioner may join other groups, such as the Christian Mothers, Holy Name Society, Knights of Columbus, Altar Linen Guild, CCD, Cleaning volunteers, Adult catechism, Friday Religious Education program, Sports, Technical advisory council, etc.
