Bound in our faith in Jesus Christ and each other, St. Finbarr is a parish family drawing upon each other’s strengths to take on the challenges and struggles of being a viable part of our community and the universal church. Our purpose is to reveal God in the way we use his wondrous gifts of time, talent and treasure. For only where God is seen does life truly begin. Just as St. Finbarr was always on pilgrimage revealing God’s love in all that he did, we also are pilgrims walking the same path to eternity on this earth, sharing the same love of God that is in our hearts and sharing this love binds us together.
The Diocese has issued precautions to be taken due to the threat of the H1N1 or Swine Flu virus.
