Fr. Marty Marren is both spiritual (to re-encounter Jesus Christ as disciples
and parish communities) and structural (to ensure our

to make disciples, build vital communities of faith and
inspire witness to bring the light and hope of Christ to a
world in need. These mission imperatives guide all that we
do in and through the spiritual and structural efforts of
