Dear Parishioners,
As small acorns develop into large oaks, St. Clement Parish has developed and matured over the past 55 years into a mature community of faith and service. We have not only experienced the expected growth in numbers but, hopefully, have also blossomed in faith and service. As our mission statement expresses it, we strive to be a spiritual family through prayer and sacrament, to proclaim the gospel in sharing our faith with others by word and example, to form community by our spirit of openness and collaboration, and to live Christ’s new commandment of loving others as he loves us through service to neighbor near and far.
We encourage all parishioners to participate in our parish life to the full extent of what their circumstances allow – in faithful attendance of Mass on Sundays and Holy Days, in the reception of the sacraments of reconciliation and the Holy Eucharist, and also in the educational, social, and service-oriented ministries.
It is our fond hope that we may all live to the challenge of being Christ to others, and in this way, contribute to the furtherance of God’s kingdom.
Msgr. James E. Pieper
