Mission Statement
|
St. Bernard Catholic Church is
united in faith and worship God through the celebration of the sacrament of the
Eucharist. Through prayer and the grace of the Holy Spirit we are inspired
to live our lives based on Scriptural teaching, sacred tradition, and Catholic
principles. Through the power of the Holy Spirit we are motivated to serve
the community by being a witness for Jesus Christ and His unconditional love for
us all. As Christ loved His spouse, the Church, so do we, through our
examples of worship, prayer, and service, strive to pass along our faith in the
Holy Trinity to our families, and to all in our community, for the continuance and
growth of our Church.
