St. Veronica’s 50th Jubilee

Please join us in praying this prayer in celebration of our Parish’s 50th Jubilee:

Father in Heaven, as we begin today the Jubilee Year of our parish’s 50th anniversary, we call forth your special blessings through Jesus, your Son, in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Today, we consecrate to Mary the Mother of God, our parish family, and all of our celebrations that will take place throughout the year.

We pray that this will be a year of grace and growth in holiness for us all.

We pray that, through the anointing of the Holy Spirit, we will engage in effective and fruitful outreach to our inactive and lapsed Catholic brothers and sisters.

We pray also that our parish will continue to be a beacon of light and welcome to those who do not know Christ, so that they too may join us on our pilgrim journey to our Father’s House.

We give you thanks, O Heavenly Father, for all who have helped build our parish community from its founding. Wherever they are today, may they know the light of your Face and share your eternal glory.

This prayer we make through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen.

 

Mission Statement

As baptized Roman Catholic Christians, fully alive in the Holy Spirit, the parish of St Veronica radically proclaims our call to live the gospel of Jesus Christ. United with the Universal Church and centered in the celebration of the Eucharist, we recognize our call to holiness and transformation, leading us to experience a new springtime of evangelization. We strive to make our community a genuine school of prayer, where the faithful may fix their eyes on Christ until their hearts burn within them....
