Our Mission Statement...

 

We are many people:
Created in the image of God,
embracing the diversity among us through our
many cultures.

We are one family:
Disciples of Christ united at the Eucharistic Table
and in the celebration of the sacraments, praying
in the language of our souls, under the patronage
of Mary, our Mother.

We are a Parish:
Young and old, married and single,
strong and weak.

We are serving Christ:
Guided by the Holy Spirit, through stewardship,
Welcoming all, educating our youth,
comforting those in need, actively proclaiming the Good News.

RCIA... Is it for you?

 

The Catholic Church invites you, and those you invite, to come and see.

Consider the following questions:

 

Are you interested in becoming Catholic?

Are you a baptized Catholic but have yet to receive the Sacraments of Holy Eucharist or Confirmation?

Have you been baptized into another Christian religion yet possess the desire to become a Catholic?

 

If you have answered YES to any of these questions, the RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS is for you.

RCIA is a loving and learning journey in which a conversion of heart will bring you to a deep relationship with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

If you are interested in joining the RCIA journey, please call Sister Elizabeth at the rectory office (215) 535-2962 ext. 408 and leave a message.

Sister will contact you.

 


 

SMT TECHNOLOGY TEAM 

The computer age is upon us. With it comes a new opportunity for service. SMT is still seeking volunteers for a Technology Team to assess and develop short and long term goals for the Church and School. The team will also address emergency needs as they arise, to the extent possible. Whether your talent is in hardware, software, networking, web design or other I.T. fields, we’d like to hear from you.

 Please leave a message at the Rectory (215 535-2962) or email us at:  techteam@smtparish.org

Thank you.
