May the Peace of Christ be with you and your loved ones!
It is a privilege to welcome you and extend a warm St. Susanna Parish greeting as you explore this web-site. St. Susanna's tag line is that we are a "Community of faith; a Church in action". We are an energetic and faith-filled parish of over 4000 households. Because it is easy to feel lost or overwhelmed, I encourage you to become involved in some ministry, outreach effort or faith formation offering. Everything we have is a gift from God. What we do with those gifts, is our gift and expression of thanks to God.
Thanks to the generosity and commitment of parishioners, we have an excellent National Blue-Ribbon school and Christian Formation Program to help our youth and parents grow in their understanding of God becoming the "first and best of teachers in the ways of the faith." There is a lively youth ministry program for Junior-Hi and High School open to all students.
Currently, the focus of the Pastoral Staff is to address the need for adult faith formation. As adults, we are all called and challenged to continue growing in our understanding of God and the Catholic Church. You will find several offerings on this web site to help you do that. But if there is a need or concern you have that does not seem to be addressed, please do not hesitate to contact me or one of the staff. I believe you will find the staff is extremely competent and willing to assist you in any way.
If you have already decided to become a member of St. Susanna parish, welcome! If you are still discerning and exploring whether we are the place for you to deepen and celebrate your faith, please know you are in my prayers.
I am humbled and honored to be the pastor of St. Susanna Parish. Please do not hesitate to contact me.
In Christ,
Fr. Bob Farrell
Pastor
