Become A Registered Parishioner
What does it mean to become a parishioner at St. Patrick's?
Becoming a registered member of the St. Patrick’s family means you will be joining a community striving to become Saints through unceasing prayer, cooperation with God, and active discipleship. This is accomplished through your individual commitment to "actual, measurable spiritual progress".
We believe this can be summarized into three concise phrases. Daily prayer. Weekly Mass. Monthly Confession. These are the basic guidelines for accomplishing what we were made for - getting into Heaven, and bringing as many people to Heaven as possible.
What are the expectations of registered parishioners?
Joining our community as a registered parishioner is a commitment to support our mission through your time, talents, and treasure, all directed to God and St. Patrick's.
Stewardship of time involves recognizing that our time on Earth is limited and should be used in ways that align with God's will. Registered parishioners are encouraged to prioritize their time by serving our parish family—volunteering, attending faith formation events, and building relationships with fellow members.
Stewardship of talent involves recognizing and developing the unique abilities and gifts God has bestowed upon each person. Parishioners are invited to share their talents generously for the benefit of others and in support of our parish mission.
Stewardship of treasure calls us to acknowledge that material wealth ultimately belongs to God and should be used in ways that reflect His values and help build His Kingdom. St. Patrick's parishioners are asked to tithe consistently and regularly as an act of thanksgiving to God and to support the ongoing work of our parish.
