Thank you for visiting our website! We are a “welcoming Catholic Faith community” says our mission statement. Our society can be so impersonal that a sense of community can be lost. How nice to have a faith-nurturing parish that is warm, friendly, affirming and pulsing with life. I have experienced this at St. John Vianney parish; I pray you experience it, too.
Our mission statement further states that we are “experiencing Christ in our lives through the Gospel, Sacraments, and lifelong faith formation.” When we live the Good News of the Gospels and scripture, and celebrate the sacraments with depth and meaning, we then grow as intentional disciples of Jesus Christ. As disciples of our Lord, we are grateful for all God’s blessings and graces. We give thanks to God through our time, talents and treasure.
Lastly, we serve other’s needs because we realize the importance of faith in action. As a Catholic parish in Brookfield, we are “serving God’s people to reveal the presence of Christ in our community.”
There are thousands of registered parishioners at St. John Vianney’s and many more people who are affiliated with us in some way. I pray you will feel the spirit of Christ here. Our pastoral staff, support staff, active members, and I all look forward to visiting with you personally as those opportunities present themselves.
Blessings,
Very Rev. Edwin Kornath
