Our Parish Prayer Heavenly
Father, We pray for all of the people and programs at St. Christopher
Parish. Unite us as a community of believers and grant us the wisdom,
grace, and strength to do your will. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
-- Amen.
Our Mission
We are a Roman Catholic Parish, whose
members live and proclaim the saving message of Jesus Christ.
Our Vision St. Christopher Church serves as
a spiritual home where all are welcome to share in its ongoing commitment
to providing opportunities for Worship through
the Celebration of the Sacraments, Service through
active and compassionate participation in the community, Education in God's Word and the Catholic faith, and Fellowship through parish events that nurture and support family life.
We welcome our new bishop, the Most Reverend Peter A. Libasci. A most joyfu installation Mass was celebrated on the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception.
Bishop Peter, concluded his homily with these words,
This new Bishop who comes to you now asks you to allow the stirrings of God’s Grace to breathe new life into us all – together so that this Faith that has been the source of hope and love in this diocese for so many generations – cherished by those who built these communities of faith – can be entrusted whole and entire to a new young generation eager to engage in that Divine companionship that enabled Mary to say “Yes” to God and to sing that ancient hymn of joy: “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!”

Sowing the Seads of Faith .....
Sowing the Seads of Faith God is looking for ordinary people to become gardeners of the Spirit. You do
not have to be especially gifted or intelligent. All you have to do is love Jesus. God needs people who are focused on Jesus
to share the gospel with others. He needs
you. RCIA is a grace-filled opportunity
to nurture the seeds of faith in people
who are interested in joining the Catholic
Church. Please contact Father Kelley at 882-0632 or Mike Bozek at 883-4439 for
