St. Raphael Cathedral - St. Patrick Parish Mission Statement
adopted, May 15, 2012
St. Raphael - St. Patrick Pastoral Care
Recently, we have had a number of parishioners in the hospital and we
had no way of knowing they were patients. We call the hospitals on a
regular basis to find out who is in the hospital from the Cathedral or St.
Patrick's so we may visit them. However, if your name is not on our
parish list, we have no way of knowing that you are in the hospital. If
you are admitted to the hospital, please inform the hospital about your
parish so that we can remember you in our thoughts and prayers.
Service Opportunities
We must have an inner disposition to be of service to others.
Just as Jesus was, we must be - for others. And we must be for
others, even when this is not easy. We must be for others when
this is unpopular. We must be for others when this is
humiliating. We must be for others when this hurts our sense of
self-importance. We must be for others even when this costs us,
even when it is inconvenient, when it is embarrassing, no matter
the occasion or setting. That is the call to all of us.
-- Archbishop Jerome Hanus - Holy Thursday

Welcoming New Parishioners
Hospitality is a quality of our parish communities that is very important. When asked why they have chosen to become a member, many new parishioners say they feel welcome at St. Patrick and the Cathedral The Parish Life committee invites you to help us welcome new parishioners. Would you be willing to make two or more phone calls a month to say hello to a new parishioner? Please call Barbara Gatch, 582-7646, if you would like to be a part of this welcoming ministry.
Join the Faith Formation Commission
The purpose of the Faith Formation Commission is to develop and oversee a comprehensive catechetical plan for the parish/cluster to provide for the lifelong faith formation and catechesis of all its members. (Archdiocesan Guidelines) We ask that you consider being a part of the St. Raphael - St. Patrick Faith Formation commission. We invite your ideas and participation.
