appealing areas caring constantly diverse enjoyed families full great key learning life ministry moving parish people walks work
It's a very diverse community, with people from all different backgrounds and walks of life. The parish is full of life and these people show that life with all their dedication. I've really enjoyed working with them. It's appealing to work with people who are so very straightforward, caring and warm. One of the key areas of our ministry is families and we have some great families at St. Lawrence. We're constantly learning and moving forward.

I went to three other parishes, but I really felt comfortable at St. Lawrence. I went to one liturgy and I felt that's where I belonged. My daughter was little at the time and she also felt at home there. There was so much warmth and comfort. It was a very welcoming community.

It was a leap of faith for me. I decided to leave my job and find out how I could become more involved. I started talking to my family and to spiritual directors and they all encouraged me. The calling was definitely there.
business crooked draws faith followed glad god helped knew lead learned life straight
Faith has always been a part of my life. I just never knew where it was going to lead me. I've always said that God draws straight with crooked lines. When I look back, I am glad I followed the straight line. Everything I learned in the business world has been a life experience. It's helped me become who I am and it really helped the calling.
education encouraged grow join leave perception religious unfair
The perception is that religious education is just for children, but that's not the case. It would be unfair to leave the adults out. It's for the whole family, the community. We're always encouraged to have everyone join in and grow in their faith.
