Welcome to St. John the Baptist Catholic Parish! I am so excited that you chose St. John’s to be your spiritual home and want you to know how welcome you are. I am looking forward to meeting you and celebrating the Eucharist with you!
St. John the Baptist is a vibrant community with numerous ministries for all age groups. I encourage you to actively participate not only in the spiritual life of our parish family but also in our various community outreach and other forms of corporal acts of mercy. Jesus said, “Whatever you do to the least of my brethren, you do unto me.” Please check our bulletin or website for a complete list of our ministries to find the ones that God is drawing you to participate in. Your gifts and talents will add beauty and diversity to the unique community of St. John the Baptist.
On behalf of Fr. Jibin, the deacons and the parish staff, may your spiritual journey with us be blessed and grace filled.
Sincerely Yours in Christ,

LOVE AND FAITH
As Catholics, we are encouraged to fully participate in our faith, not just by attending mass and receiving the Sacraments, but to help spread the Word.
Many opportunities are available for this: Join a ministry, invite friends to consider the faith, join a study group, attend Church events, help all the
programs with financial support, your talent and your time. Help us build
the Kingdom of God by sharing the time, talent and treasure
God has entrusted to you.
