Vision:
To embrace the local community in such a manner that the needs of the people that are not fulfilled by existing agencies may in some way be addressed by St. Catherine’s parish. It is our mission and vision to encourage, support, and train parish volunteers to meet these challenges by focusing on spiritual growth and the development of attitudes that complement the need of the community in such a way that benefits the common good.
Goals:
- Work to develop unity among the various Agape groups to see that the person that we serve is Christ in all of our ministries.
- Partner with the other parish Stewards to coordinate groups that may have cross-over needs or events that affect more than one mission area.
- Meet on a quarterly basis with the Agape members to discuss upcoming events and financial needs.
- Support the continual needs of our sister parish, El Sitio, and Casa Hogar and Amparo.
- Develop a quarterly news letter to send to all of our Casa and El Sitio sponsors as well as update news to all Agape members.
- Look in to the possibility of developing a Christian Service orientation training school for parishioners that may want to volunteer for outreach opportunities but have never done so in the past.
