Jesus Christ. We celebrate the life of faith through the Eucharist. As we break bread together, we are inspired to care for others and are challenged to grow in faith through prayer, study,
and social interaction.
SS. Peter & Paul Vision Statement: All parishioners recognize the challenge of the Gospel and the Eucharist as evidenced by participating
in various ministries, inviting and welcoming others, caring for and serving those in need, and promoting peace and justice.
The Mass Readings for each day can now be found on our website (www.rocklincatholic.org), the USCCB website (www.usccb.org/bible/readings),

The Parish Pastoral Council is a representative body of the faithful whose focus is on the whole SS Peter & Paul community. The council is an exploratory and advisory group made up of nine members that serve a three-year term and a youth representative serving a one year term. The responsibility of the council is to aid the pastor in coordinating, encouraging, and promoting the activities of the parish - to serve all members of the parish in the best way possible. The council also has the responsibility of assisting the pastor in developing the most effective means of carrying out guidelines and directives given by the bishop.
Our Pastoral Council is a valuable source to the pastor of information on parish, civic, legal and pastoral realities. A diverse Council is able to provide the pastor with insights vital for decision making, among them:
Knowledge of the talents, skills and abilities of parish members Knowledge of parish history and customs Knowledge of the multiple populations in the community Knowledge of the wider civic community's resources, legal and
political considerations
There are current openings on the Council; think about joining us.

Catholics Returning Home Series Begins Sept. 14th—Have you recently returned to the Church? Even if you’ve never left, do you have questions about the Mass, Catholic teaching, or anything in regard to the Catholic Church? This casual class is comprised of 5 sessions and if needed, will
be provided online. Come with your questions and concerns and they will be answered! We typically offer the class from 6:30-8:00 PM but if daytime hours work better for the participants, this can be adjusted. To register for the class, visit www.rocklincatholic.org/catholics-returning-home. Facilitated by Darcy Wharton.
Book Club Selection—We've selected a book that came highly recommended. In The Misunderstood Jew, scholar Amy-Jill Levine helps Christians and Jews understand the "Jewishness" of Jesus so that their appreciation of him deepens and a greater interfaith dialogue can take place. Levine's humor and informed truth-telling provokes honest conversation and debate about how Christians and Jews should understand Jesus, the New Testament, and each other. You can purchase it yourself on Amazon.com. If you are unable to purchase it online, please contact Darcy at [email protected] and we will arrange for contactless pickup.($14). Our discussion will now take place on Oct. 6th at 6:00 PM. We are hoping to meet in person, but if not, we will have an online discussion.
