Purpose
Inspire members of the church to deepen their faith life and become more active in the Catholic Church. This commission helps parishioners to renew their commission to Jesus Christ and His church by proclaiming the Gospel to others through both words and actions. They also reach out and invite those that have become distant from their faith to come back to the church.
Goals and activities are established yearly to fulfill the mission of this commission.
