Jesus was very clear in his public teaching regarding the cost of following him. The Christian life is more than attending (most) Sunday Masses and Holy Days. If we live our Christian faith as Christ would have it, we will come into direct conflict with the prevailing values of this world.
I want to do an ad campaign for our parish and I am looking for members of the parish who would agree to be photographed. Because we are a diverse parish, I hope to get a good cross section of the community involved. Basically, we want to show this part of the metro that we have people of every stripe imaginable practicing the Catholic faith here at St. Eugene. Contact the parish office if you would be agreeable to the project and a brief photo shoot.
Catholic schools are often the heart of ministry in parishes. The need to prepare the next generation for leadership, discipleship can be a difficult but urgent task. Here at St. Eugene, our school serves to hand on our Catholic faith and values, but also to create a community.
