Join us at St. John of the Cross Cluster for Inspiring Homilies and Faith-Filled Fellowship
Fr. Simon, SMA, is a Catholic priest and member of the Society of African Missions (SMA). His priestly ministry is centered on proclaiming the Gospel, providing pastoral care, and helping people encounter Jesus Christ through Sacred Scripture, the Eucharist, the sacraments, prayer, and Christian community.
Through preaching, faith formation, pastoral ministry, and spiritual accompaniment, Fr. Simon seeks to make the Catholic faith accessible and meaningful in everyday life. His ministry reflects Christ’s call to “go into the whole world and proclaim the Gospel” (Mark 16:15), inviting the faithful to grow in faith, hope, and love and to live as missionary disciples in the Church and in the world.
My Church Fellowship is an online Catholic ministry of the St. John of the Cross Catholic Cluster and the Christian Life Center (CLC) in the Diocese of Portland, Maine. Rooted in the Gospel and the life of the Church, this ministry seeks to help people encounter Jesus Christ through prayer, Sacred Scripture, the Eucharist, faith formation, worship, pastoral reflection, and Christian fellowship. As the first Christians “devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to the prayers” (Acts 2:42), we seek to build a community where faith is nourished, the Gospel is proclaimed, and people are encouraged to walk together in faith, hope, and love. Whether you are a parishioner, a visitor, someone seeking to deepen your Catholic faith, or someone returning to the Church, you are welcome to explore this ministry and discover ways to pray, learn, serve, and belong.
The ministry of My Church Fellowship extends the pastoral mission of the St. John of the Cross Catholic Cluster and the Christian Life Center (CLC) by providing a place where the Church's life, teaching, reflections, formation, and pastoral messages can be shared beyond the walls of our churches. Through Catholic homilies and Gospel reflections, liturgical and seasonal resources, ongoing formation, stewardship, parish information, devotions, and opportunities for fellowship, this website seeks to strengthen Christian discipleship and communion. Jesus prayed that His disciples “may all be one” (John 17:21), and St. Paul reminds us that “we, though many, are one body in Christ” (Romans 12:5). In that spirit, My Church Fellowship invites you to become part of a living Catholic community—a place to pray, listen, learn, grow, serve, and encounter Christ together.
