Our Mission
We are a Roman Catholic Parish, whose
members live and proclaim the saving message of Jesus Christ.
Our Vision St. Christopher Church serves as
a spiritual home where all are welcome to share in its ongoing commitment
to providing opportunities for Worship through
the Celebration of the Sacraments, Service through
active and compassionate participation in the community, Education
in God's Word and the Catholic faith, and Fellowship
through parish events that nurture and support family life.
Heavenly
Father, We pray for all of the people and programs at St. Christopher
Parish. Unite us as a community of believers and grant us the wisdom,
grace, and strength to do your will. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
-- Amen.
May the peace and blessings of Christ be with you this Christmas and throughout the coming year.
Please join us for our Christmas Concert on Sunday, January 11, 2009 at 3:00 PM
Year of Saint Paul
A special jubilee year dedicated to St. Paul runs from June 28, 2008 to
June 29, 2009, to mark the approximately 2,000th anniversary of the saint’s
birth. The Diocese
of Manchester's web site, the “Year
of St. Paul” offers coverage of activities and celebrations planned
in honor of the Pauline year.
Have you seen Catholic News Agency's The
Pauline Year Website? The site is well done and very informative.
Creating for Our Community
The members of the Creating for Our Community ministry meet monthly to knit
and crochet Prayer Shawls. The shawls are given to those members of
our community or their family and friends, who have suffered a loss, are
going through tough times, are celebrating a joyful occasion in their lives,
or are in need of a visible sign of a prayer. Do you know of someone who
would be comforted by the gift of a Prayer Shawl? If you would like to pass
a shawl along to someone you know, please contact the Rectory at 882-0632.
The prayer shawls are hand delivered along with our friendship. For those
outside our community, you should contact your local parish, and you are
always welcome to send your prayer requests to our parish
prayer-line.
