Mission Statement

We, the parish community of Saint Gregory the Great Catholic Church in the Diocese of Richmond, are called to proclaim God's love and the Good News of Jesus Christ to all. We respect the value and dignity of each person as a child of our loving God. We are committed to the practices and beliefs of the Gospel and the Church's teachings. We will proclaim and accomplish our mission by bringing the Good News of Jesus Christ and the Catholic faith to people of all ages through genuine Worship that emphasizes Faith, increased Understanding and Spiritual Experience.

 

Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time God Leads His Flock Today is the end of the church year. We hear about the second coming of the Lord Jesus. As the shepherd gathers his flock, Jesus gathers his covenanted people. His flock recognizes its ruler, and he chooses those who have been faithful. He leads his flock through the valley of death to share God’s own life. Are we ready for this adventure? Text, Philip J. Sandstrom, S.T.D. © 2002, OCP.
