Our Mission
We, at Saint Lawrence Roman Catholic church, are a welcoming Catholic community centered in
the living presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. Guided by the Holy Spirit and inspired by the Word
of God, we are committed to the spiritual growth and faith formation of all the community. We
come together under Christ, our Lord, His Blessed Mother Mary, and our Patron Saint Lawrence
to promote the Truths of our Faith, to sanctify them through the sacraments, and to serve our
loving God and one another through worship, witness, and works of charity.

New Year, new beginnings!
I hope you haven’t defaulted from your New Year's resolution (s) already! I try to at least give it a solid month before
I give up! LOL
January 22nd marks the day the Church throughout America prays for the legal protection for unborn children. This is
one of the greatest social justice issues that we face in our time, so please pray to end this violent injustice and that
God will have mercy on us.
“Thank You” to all who helped put the church Christmas decorations away for another year and prepared the church
for Ordinary Time. Much appreciated! The outside decorations will come down, when the temperature goes up!
Hopefully well before Ash Wednesday! LOL
Please consider serving at Mass. We are in need of Altar Servers, Readers, and Greeters at this time. We will work
around your schedule and train you. Please see Gerry, Deacon Geoff, or myself after Mass if interested...and “Thank
You” to all who currently serve at Mass!
Discussions about changing the Sunday Mass schedule have been ongoing as of late. The thought is to move the
Sunday, 8:00AM Mass to a later time i.e., 8:30AM or 9:00AM to better serve the parish community’s needs. With this
in mind, the possible need to change the 10:30AM to 11:00AM? These suggestions were discussed at the last Parish
Council meeting. The process is lengthy and will take time to figure out what’s best. Presently, I am collecting data
and opinions. Your input is important, so if you wish, please e-mail me your comments at

God Love You!
