MISSION
STATEMENT
We,
as parishioners of the Church of the Resurrection of Our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ, are a community of believers grounded
in the teaching of Jesus in the Roman Catholic tradition. Guided
by the Holy Spirit, we welcome all people to join us in our Faith
Journey. Through worship, prayer, study and action, we strive
to bring the good news and value of God’s Kingdom to our
community and to the world beyond our community.
FROM THE
PASTOR'S DESK...
 Lent
offers us an opportunity to reflect on where I am with the Lord.
Am I closer to the Lord this Lent than I was last year at this time?
If not, why not? Am I too busy? If so, then in what ways can I slow
down so as to give Him some time? Where, for instance, can I find
five or ten minutes in my day to say a prayer of thanks? Or five
minutes to read a page of the Black Lenten book. Or ten minutes
to read Scripture. With reflection I’m sure I can find the
time for God. But I have to make a conscious decision to put him
in my day, it doesn’t just happen. Lent is an opportunity to
come closer to the Lord, if we want to.
--Peace, Fr. Quinn
