Called by our Baptism to be the People of God and formed by the Holy Spirit to be Saint Bernadette Roman Catholic Parish, we its members recognize our need to grow as a faith community.

We accept God’s call to:
 – Worship together at the celebration of the Eucharist, enriched by private and communal prayer and graced by the Sacraments;
 – Recognize Christ within each other and respond to His Presence with charity, justice and peace;
 – Bear witness with our lives to the Gospel of Jesus Christ;
 – Teach the Good News proclaimed by Jesus to love God and others;
 – Minister to the spiritual, physical, emotional and material needs of one another.

In union with the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church and mindful of our mission, we resolve to live with Christ at the center of our lives.  We pray, through the intercession of the Blessed Mother and Saint Bernadette, for guidance from the Holy Spirit to carry out our mission as faithful members of Saint Bernadette of Lourdes Parish
