MISSION STATEMENT FOR OUR LADY OF CONSOLATION PARISH
We, the Joyful Family of God, united in our Catholic Faith, seek to model our patroness, Our Lady of
Consolation, by bringing love and comfort to all, teaching God’s Children in His ways by word and
sacrament, and keeping the vibrant love of Jesus present in our world.

OUR LEGACY COMMITMENT—2013
Now, it is time to consider what our legacy will be to the generations that come after us. Let it not be said that it was our generation that was unable to sustain this parish so rich in history, so vibrant in faith and good works.
