Our Ministries

Our Ministries

At Baptism we were called to join Jesus in His mission to build God’s kingdom. As we go about our daily lives, we are challenged to keep this mission foremost in our minds.

God has helped us by blessing us with many gifts. As good stewards, we are to be aware of these gifts of time, talent, and treasure, and to respond in gratitude by using and sharing them in ways that glorify God. These are the hands of Christ, the hands that help put our faith into action.

To live in a community of Faith, we are called to share these gifts and talents to strengthen the St. Agnes Parish Community. Prayerfully reflect on any ministry that interests you, and consider joining your hands with those of others in our faith-community and use your God-given gifts to fulfill His mission. You may be able to give an hour weekly or monthly, more or less, but any gift of time and talent is welcome and needed.
