WHO MAKE IT POSSIBLE
Sisters of Mercy
Our daily lives as Sisters of Mercy are rooted in four core values inspired by the life of our founder Catherine McAuley: spirituality, community, service, social justice and our critical concerns.
St. Elizabeth Seton Catholic Church
St. Elizabeth Seton Parish believes in Stewardship! We strive to recognize that everything we have is a gift from God. All we have falls into three categories, time, talent, and treasure. These gifts of time, talent, and treasure, are to be gratefully received, shared generously, and returned to God with praise. Each of us has much to offer, and I ask you to consider volunteering your time and talent for one of our many ministries.
