Message from Father Charles
Welcome to Saint Benedict Catholic Church! I am delighted that you have stopped by our website to find out more about our parish.
At St. Benedict’s we know that we are all individual parts of the mystical Body of Christ. The real beauty of our church is our parishioners. The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches: “When his visible presence was taken from them, Jesus did not leave his disciples orphans. He promised to remain with them until the end of time; he sent them his Spirit. As a result communion with Jesus has become, in a way, more intense: ‘By communicating his Spirit, Christ mystically constitutes as his body those brothers of his who are called together from every nation.’”
This is precisely manifested in the parish setting where we receive the Body and Blood of Christ, listen to the Word of God proclaimed, find forgiveness of our sins in Reconciliation, communal support, and ways to give life to our faith. The parish church is a living, breathing entity because in it God interacts with His people. We invite and encourage you to join us as we pray, work, and play together: we hope that this will be your experience of St. Benedict’s and that you will find warmth and hospitality here in a spiritually and emotionally nourishing environment.We are all on a journey in life seeking to walk with Christ, and I invite you to come along and walk with us on the journey. Our parish is proud to offer many opportunities for parishioners to come together in faith. If there is anything we can do to help you in your journey to grow closer to God, please do not hesitate to contact us.
May you always experience God’s endless love and boundless blessings!
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Fr. Charles J. Benoit, O.S.B., V.F.
Pastor

The Peter’s Pence Collection has ancient roots that reach all the way back to New Testament times. The early Christians provided material support that the disciples—those preaching the Gospel—could distribute to those in need. Today, the Peter’s Pence Collection is the way we, as members of the Catholic Church, unite ourselves to the concerns of the Holy Father. Donations to this collection support the charitable works of Pope Francis for the relief of those most in need. The second collection will be taken the weekend of May 27/28. Please be generous.Read More
