Ministries in the Parish

"The Church gives thanks for all the manifestations of the feminine "genius" which have appeared in the course of history, in the midst of all peoples and nations; she gives thanks for all the charisms which the Holy Spirit distributes to women in the history of the People of God, for all the victories which she owes to their faith, hope and charity: she gives thanks for all the fruits of feminine holiness."

-John Paul II, Apostolic Letter Mulieris  Dignitatem

 We are grateful for the monthly Family Offering for the ongoing maintenance and development of our parish. The envelope collection has provided us with the necessary funds to carry out our recent renovations. 

The Community Development Fund (CDF) operates to carry out community development projects through monthly community investments from the parishioners. It is an appropriate tool for offering educational, health, mental and spiritual improvements of living standards in a participatory manner.

The CDF used completely for the welfare of the parish community. Of the total amount received, the expenditure is  done as per the following 

25% - Education, 

20% - Health, 

15% - Training and Ongoing Formation, 

40% - Church Maintenance (Repairs, Electricity, Water Bills, Telephone, Internet Charges and Taxes).

We are grateful for our SCC Area Collectors who voluntarily collect the amount from each family in the parish every month. May God reward them a hundredfold in return.

Catechists have a vocation...a calling from the Lord rooted in Baptism to carry out His mandate to teach the Gospel. The General Directory for Catechesis tells us that "The Church awakens and discerns this divine vocation and confers the mission to catechize. The Lord Jesus invites men and women, in a special way, to follow him, teacher and formator of disciples." (GDC 231)

Class 1: Mrs. Deanne Baptist & Mrs. Gracy Pinto
