Loving God, We come to you in thanksgiving, knowing all that we are and all that we have is a gift from you.  Open our eyes that we may see the lavishness of your love.  Open our ears that we may hear where we can help.  Open our hearts that we may be bonded together as a community of faith, a caring people, who bear witness to your love in our lives.  We pray in Jesus' name.  Amen.

I serve because working together we build the future of our Catholic community. It strengthens my faith and I reap the benefits of a life well lived through serving others. Simply put - I love my faith, my community and my church.

I feel called by Jesus to serve my family, my parish, and my community. By nourishing, by giving of my time or talents, or sometimes just lending an attentive ear. Trying to follow Jesus' many examples of service is the way I want to live.

My faith and relationship with God started to feel compartmentalized to certain places and times.  I volunteered to bring my relationship with God to the center of my life again.
