"About Jesus Chirst and the Chruch, I simply know they're just one thing, and we shouldn't complicate the matter."  -Saint Joan of Arc

If the Lord is calling you Home to the Catholic Church, look no further! Jesus Christ lived, died, and rose to establish His One True Church and all are welcome! Throughout the year we have Bible studies, classes for all parshioners, volunteer groups and much more to help newcomers and all parishioners along their journey of faith.

The process of learning and understandingn the Catholic Faith is known as O.C.I.A or the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults. Classes begin Tuesday, Sept 15th and end with the Easter Vigil. This is the formal process for entry into the Church. However, we want to walk with you along the path of discovery and discipleship towards Christ Jesus when classes are not in session! For more information call the parish office or contact Deacon Shawn Payne

More resources about understanding the Catholic Faith can be found at Catholic Answers or Formed and create an account under our parish.

Been Away for a While?

Maybe you've been away from the Church for a while and you've been feeling the Lord calling you back Home. Maybe it's just been a long time since you've been to confession. Jesus loves you and wants you to respond to that call. You are always loved and welcomed in the Catholic Church and especially in St. Teresa of Avila's or St. Vincent de Paul's parish families.

If you're interested in scheduling an appointment for a private confession, speaking with a priest or deacon, or just wanting to ask questions about coming back to the Church, please contact the parish office.
