Ministries
Join us in Mission!
Our parish community is strengthened and made vibrant through the gifts and service of each member. We invite you to pray about becoming part of one of our ministries-an opportunity to grow in faith, build community, and share Christ's love with others.
Whether you feel called to hospitality, liturgy, music, outreach, faith formation, prayer or service, there is a place for YOU here.
If you cannot locate the ministry you are interested in, please contact the church office at 814-833-7701 or send us an email.
