Why Should I Register?
By registering in a parish, you are declaring your desire to be part of a Catholic faith community. Your registration affects a parish in many ways. Census numbers may determine how many priests are assigned to a parish, what benefits and obligations the community has to the diocese, and how many Masses and programs are planned and scheduled.
Registration enables the parish pastor and staff to get to know you better, and helps them be able to communicate with you by sending you mailings. Once you are registered, please notify the parish office of any changes in address or phone number.
Members can expect pastoral care from their parish, including baptisms, anointing of the sick, and funerals, and weddings.
What does Being an Active Catholic Look Like?
The Church uses these precepts remind us that Christian life requires a commitment to prayer and active participation in the liturgy and sacraments. If we fall below this bare-minimum level, we can’t rightly consider ourselves to be in full communion with the Catholic Church.
Cf. "Precepts of the Church," Catechism of the Catholic Church # 2242-43
Please fill out the registration form as completely as possible, and return to the parish office by mail, email or by dropping it in the collection basket at weekend Masses.
