“Let the grace of your Baptism bear fruit in a path of holiness.”

— Pope Francis

The sacraments are moments of encounter with God’s love, celebrated in community. Through preparation, families and individuals grow in faith and understanding, discovering what it means to live as followers of Christ within the Church.

Our parish accompanies you every step of the way — with prayer, catechesis, and pastoral care. 🌸
