Why is it so important that we register in a parish? Isn't it good enough that we go to Mass?

Registration is the offical way to join a parish community. Just coming to Mass doesn't automatically register you in the parish. And children growing into adulthood are not automatically registered under their parents.

Joining a parish requires signing up, formally registering yourself in a parish. Registration is a commitment to a community. It is a way to be included in the religious, social, and ministerial activities of your parish. Your registration affects the parish in many ways: Mass schedules, confession offerings, devotions, and social events.

How do I join?

Registration forms are available in the Gathering Space in the church; complete the form and return it to the Parish Office by dropping it in any of the collection boxes in the church. You can also choose to register online by clicking here.
