Our Mission and Goals

We are the Catholic Church in Central Kentucky, disciples of Jesus Christ, rich in our tradition
and growing in our diversity, striving for fullness of life in God.
Led by the grace of the Holy Spirit and in communion with the Bishop of Rome, our mission is
to proclaim and live the good news of Jesus Christ by:
 Worshipping God in word and sacrament;
 Witnessing and sharing our faith;
 Serving human needs, especially those of the poor and oppressed;
 Promoting holiness of life through continuing conversion;
 Fostering justice and mercy among all God’s people.
We commit ourselves to thankfulness through responsible stewardship of all God’s gifts.
