Let us invite the Holy Spirit to take over more and more of our lives. Now more than ever, please support St. Theresa Church. As we all navigate through these unsettling and unprecedented times, St. Theresa Church is still reliant on your good stewardship. Despite the suspension of Masses and other ministries, we still have obligations to pay our employees, creditors, as well as to maintain our property and buildings. Hale Kau Kau, thank God, is still open to feeding our hungry, houseless and homebound each night. We are being diligent and thorough making certain that CDC guidelines are followed especially at this time. Online Giving is a simple way to accomplish your offertory giving. If you haven't already signed up, just click the Online Giving image above. If you need assistance, please call the Parish Office. In addition you can still mail your envelopes or checks to the Parish Office. As you are able, please be as generous as you can. We trust in our loving and healing Lord and know that we soon will meet again as a community of faith. Let us continue to pray for one another and be ready to continue our Gospel call, for Rooted in Jesus, we Love and Serve others. Please visit our website!!
