Finance Council members:
Fr. Walter J. Tappe, Pastor
Mr. Jerome Smallwood, Chair
Mrs. Maureen Meyer
Mrs. Cornelia Kennedy
Mr. Mark Commins
“Precisely because God gives a resounding 'yes' to man, man cannot fail to open himself to the divine vocation to pursue his own development. The truth of development consists in its completeness: if it does not involve the whole man and every man, it is not true development.”
- Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI,
Caritas in Veritate, 18
"Lord, it's your Church.
You take care of it.
I'm going to bed."
- Saint John XXIII (1881-1963)
