St. John Vianney Parish

Christ established His Church on the Rock of our first Pope’s bold proclamation. “Simon Peter said in reply, ‘You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.’ Jesus said to him in reply, ‘Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father. And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it.’ ” (Matt 16:16-18)

We welcome you to join us for weekend or daily Mass where we encounter our Savior, who gave His life so that we might have life everlasting. Our sacramental schedule is listed in the sidebar here on our homepage as well as at the bottom of each page of our website. Some special events at our parish are detailed below. We encourage you to also check our most recent bulletin for any last minute changes.

Please pray for Religious Vocations!

The patron saint of our parish is Saint John Vianney. He was a parish priest in the small and very remote village of Ars, France during the early 1800’s. St. John Vianney was a humble man with a deep devotion to our Blessed Lady. He was much beloved by his parishioners.
St. John Vianney became very famous as a confessor and spiritual director. He heard confessions of people from all over the world, often for 16 hours a day. His life was filled with works of charity and love, and today Saint John Vianney is known as the patron saint of all parish priests.
The stained glass windows in our church depict scenes from the life of Saint John Vianney. We have used details from our windows on this web site. Please join us and all in our diocese in praying for more vocations to the priesthood and religious life.
