We will remain true to Catholic teachings with love and respect for all.

We will strive to be examples of the Christian life, being open and honest with humble hearts, acknowledging the times we failed to live it out.

Every person is a child of God and is equally loved by God, and therefore shall be treated as such.

We will create diverse groups and ministries, listening and taking into consideration all thoughts, ideas, and opinions.

We will recognize cultural differences and be inclusive in our celebrations and ministries.

We will be a place of joy, gratitude, and love, charitable in both our words and actions; accepting each person, wherever they are in the faith journey.

We will reflect the love and joy of Christ through our liturgy, sacraments, adoration, and prayer, all for the glory of God.
