Young and old, adult and teen, suburban and rural, hardworking and dedicated -- these are the words that describe our “faith family”. Connecting all these people together is the search for God in a rapidly changing culture.
Catholics at St. Philip view the discovery and development of their identity as an important life task. They value work that provides a sense of purpose. They strive for love and belonging. And they are comfortable with differing spiritualities and devotions. Most of all, Catholics are eager to experience the presence of God.
Christians today, especially younger Catholics, realize that faith formation is a lifelong endeavor. They hunger for God’s presence and what it means to live ethically. They want a holistic spirituality that embraces both their lives and their Catholic religion. Catholics today highly prize the importance of personally discovering, testing and probing the mysteries of faith. They are very sensitive to the demands of compassion, justice and the peace which only Christ can give.
We invite all the people of our parish, our visitors and guests to experience the parish life of our Catholic community. We wish to collaborate with you on ways that will enrich your work, your relationships, your spiritual lives and your personal identity.
When our patron saint Philip the Apostle invited a friend to meet Jesus, he said simply, "Come and see." [John 1:46] This is our welcome to you. Come and see our faith family!
