Mission Statement
The
parish of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton is established to bring us together as a
Catholic Faith Community. Our parish life centers on the Eucharist,
during which we celebrate the presence of the Risen Lord among us. As
a baptized faith community, we the people of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish
are open to the Spirit of Jesus who brings to us new life.
We provide support for all our members through
liturgy, worship, the sacraments, religious education, service and social
events. We reflect a familial love in our ministry to one another.
We are witnesses to the Christ who has touched our lives. We are His
Church and proclaim His Gospel. We pursue justice and peace. We
are responsible to the community at large of Holmen, the Diocese and the
World.
