"Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible." - St. Francis of Assisi
Regular weekend attendees are encouraged to take the next step and become a member.
Members are challenged to take their next steps: serve in a ministry, join a small group, worship through their tithe or offering, support our missions, spend daily quiet time with God, and increasingly honor God in all areas of their daily lives.
Members are also encouraged to invest in and invite family and friends to our weekend Mass.

At the 43rd World Communications Day, Pope Benedict XVI coined the phrase "digital continent." Our late pontiff recognized the need and value of the internet as an unchartered mission field.
"Without fear we must set sail on the digital sea, facing into the deep with the same passion that has governed the ship of the Church for two thousand years...[W]e want to qualify ourselves by living in the digital world with a believer's heart, helping to give a soul to the Internet's incessant flow of communication." -Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI (2010)
The purpose of these initiatives is to engage our members, evangelize them, and draw them closer to Christ. Media as means to connect to your parish is another way to engage in the New Evangelization, in which St. John Paul the Great called for "new methods and new ardor."
New media, simply put, is effective communication.
