Welcome to our Catholic family
Welcome to St. Anthony’s Catholic Parish: we are a family of love, service to God, and to one another. We proclaim God’s mission through the Eucharist, which is the source and summit of our Christian life. It is my hope that, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, many will join us as disciples of Jesus who said that, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.”
Thanks to all who have brought life back into St. Anthony’s Parish. We are so fortunate to have so many of you participating and leading us forward. Our church is truly a community of Faith and Love.
