Vision of our Parish of St. Ignatius
St. Ignatius parish is a joyful, spirit-filled community of faithful believers, unified by one baptism, rooted to one identity in the Father, the son, and the Holy Spirit.  We are a faith community possessing an ever unfolding spirituality centered in the Eucharist and a prayer life inclusive of many expressions of faith.  Under the guidance of our blessed Mother Mary and St. Joseph, we are a journeying community sharing in the mission of Christ to establish God's kingdom of justice, peace and love committed to a loving and faithful service to our families and compassion for the poor.

Blood Pressure MonitoringStethoscope
Last Sunday each month
Health Ministry will begin doing blood pressure checks after the 8:30 and 10:30 masses the last Sunday of the month.  Stop by the site in the Gathering Space and have your blood pressure checked. It is important to know these numbers. High blood pressure can go undetected because there usually are no symptoms. High blood pressure can lead to heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage.

WELCOME!
Our warmest welcome to all who celebrate with us, whether long-time residents or newly arrived in the parish. If you have not registered, have had a change of address, or are moving, please write your name, address and telephone number on a piece of paper and put it in the collection basket or mail it to the parish office.

Call to Stewardship
    Everything that we have and we are is because of a loving God whose generous love has endowed us with everything that we need to live a life worthy of the dignity as children of God. The nature that we enjoy, the things that we have and use, the people that influence our life and way of living, the different opportunities of growth and fulfillment are blessings from our father who desires the best for us to live in his love and goodness.
   We are the people that we are because we use these blessings. In return we enjoy and live, give thanks and share. As a grateful response to his constant love we are invited to live a life in grace and in gratitude by our way of living and loving. In the way that we receive, we give in the way of love. Stewardship is an invitation to live a life in love and gratitude. We care and we share because we were loved and were given. In our parish there are many opportunities for growing and sharing so that others may grow.
    In the ministries that we offer we become vessels to allow the grace of God to flow in our community. I invite you to consider sharing your time, talent and treasure through the ministries in our parish. In the pages that follow are an enumeration and descriptions of the ministries. Recognizing your gift/charism please consider a ministry as a form of stewardship.
   We grow and by the sharing of our charisms/gifts we make Jesus shine, be seen and experienced by many.
