GREETINGS FROM FR. JOE
Peace and blessings to you!
On behalf of our entire parish family at St. John the Evangelist Parish, I want to extend a heartfelt welcome to you. Whether you are visiting, new to our community, returning to the Church, or seeking a spiritual home, we are truly glad that you are here.
Our parish is a vibrant and faithful community rooted in the love of Christ and guided by the teachings of the Catholic Church. We strive to grow together in faith, serve our neighbors with compassion, and celebrate the Sacraments with reverence and joy. Most importantly, we hope that you feel the presence of God and the warmth of His people here.
Please know that you are not just welcome—you are needed. Your presence enriches our community, and we invite you to become involved in parish life through worship, prayer, service, and fellowship. If you have any questions or if there’s anything we can do to support your journey of faith, do not hesitate to reach out.
May the peace of Christ dwell in your heart and may the Blessed Virgin Mary keep you always in her care.
With prayerful best wishes,
In Christ,
Mrs. Joe
