Isn't it good enough that we go to Mass?
Registration is the official way we join a parish community. Many people think that because they attend a particular parish they are automatically members. At times, young adults who moved away years ago think they are still registered under their parents. But membership requires signing up, formally enrolling yourself in a parish.
Registration is a commitment to a community, a way to be included in the religious, social and ministerial activities of your parish. Your registration affects the parish in many ways. Census numbers can determine how many priests are assigned to a church, what benefits and obligations the community has to the diocese, and how Masses, confessions and devotions are planned and scheduled.
Registration shows that you belong. It is also helpful for certain benefits, like scheduling sacraments, and getting donation statements for taxes. Most importantly, it lets the parish count on you, to call on you to assist in its mission.
Registering is a statement of faith and confidence in the life and work of our parish. On the first weekend of each month, parishioners are available in the narthex to answer your registration questions
Welcome! We are so glad that you want to make St. Richard’s Catholic Church your parish home! Registration allows us to communicate with you about parish programs and record emergency contact information, as well as helping us to get an accurate view of who our parishioners are and how our resources should be allocated to best serve our community!
Fill out the New Member Registration Form on this page or talk to one of our hospitality ministers when you visit us on Sunday. On the first weekend of each month, we have volunteers available to answer your question about becoming a full member of our parish family.
