A Place of
Courageous Hospitality
Hospitality
In July 2007, our parish entered into a Sister Parish relationship with the Maryknoll Sisters in Darien Province in Panama. In this very rural province abutting Columbia, their focus is to care for creation specifically the endangered rain forests in their midst. Parishioners have visited their Pastoral Center in Sante Fe many times since then to support the Maryknoll mission and to develop relationships with our Catholic brothers and sisters. The nine-minute video below provides an overview of our parish’s Sister Parish connection.
