Holy Family Parish is delighted to welcome Pope Leo to the papacy, a leader whose profound faith and dedication to the teachings of Christ is sure to inspire us all.

Our Vision
The Holy Family is committed to the person of Jesus in his teaching. Therefore, we are called to live justly, to love tenderly and to walk humbly with our God (Micah 6:8) so that we might become effective witnesses of the Gospel.
Our Mission
We will dedicate ourselves to live and spread the Good News of Jesus Christ by words and actions. In following Jesus, Mary and Joseph in their love for each other, the example of their family life, we will come to true holiness. We will strive to imitate the Holy Family by:
-
Being a loving, welcoming and forgiving community, fully alive in the spirit of Holy Family
-
Teaching our children, the Gospel way of life and encouraging them always to share fully in the life of our Parish
-
Celebrating the Eucharist as a joyful remembrance of our Lord’s sacrifice for us
-
Being an “Oasis" of hope, love and mercy to God’s children.
-
Being witnesses to the Gospel of Jesus, strengthened by our cultural diversity
