The following Core Values are an essential set of authentic, timeless values that define and guide All Saints Catholic Church. These values reflect or define who we are as a parish community, not who we aspire to become.
CATHOLIC TRADITION
We value our Catholic identity, which is rooted in the teachings
of Jesus Christ and the Church which He founded.
“Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church.”
(Matthew 16:18)
COMMUNITY
We value our faith-centered community, a people woven together in Christ.
We love and support one another in keeping with Jesus’ prayer
“that all might be one.” (John 17:21)
“We, though many, are one body in Christ.”
(Romans 12:5)
FAITH FORMATION
We value lifelong Catholic education and faith formation
that provide a deeper knowledge of God and His will for us so that
we will continue to grow in faith and serve as examples of Christian life.
“The Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name,
will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.”
(John 14:26)
SERVICE
We value our Gospel role to serve God through lifelong service
to others by sharing our time, talent, and treasure.
“Truly, I say to you, as you did it to the least of my brothers,
you did it to me.”
(Matthew 25:40)
WORSHIP AND PRAYER
We value reverent, faith-filled prayer and worship,
reflecting the glory and majesty of God to whom it is offered.
“Whenever two or more are gathered in my name, I am with you.”
(Matthew 18:20)
