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 Gods Kingdom to our
community and to the world beyond our community.
FROM THE
PASTOR'S DESK...
Ordinary
time! There is a lot to be said for everyday ordinary. Now that
the "Holidays" are behind us it is good to be ordinary.
Go to work, go to school, cook dinner, do homework, do the dishes,
watch TV, go to bed! Ordinary routine is a blessing in disguise
because it gives us a sense of security, in that, on ordinary days
there will be no surprises to upset the "applecart" of
life, just a routine that actually makes our live easier. I'd like
to see someone write a biography titled: "An Ordinary Life".
It, perhaps, wouldn't be a big seller, but it would describe most
of our lives as lived, and that would be OK. There is a lot to be
said for Everyday Ordinary.
--Peace, Fr. Quinn
