The church is a place for the community to gather for worship and for celebration of the sacraments.  Through architecture, sculpture, candles, flowers, plants, fabric and more, the church's environment enhances these experiences. 

The purpose of the ministry is to create an atmosphere with the liturgical space that invites and inspires the assembly to full and conscious participation in the paschal mystery in keeping with the seasons of the liturgical year.
 
The Art & Environment committee is responsible for arranging the seasonal decorations and the plants that are in the church throughout the year.  This committee is made up of parishioners who have the time and the commitment to keep our church environment one of holiness and celebration.

We are always interested in recruiting creative people, such as artists, seamstresses, crafters, interior and floral designers., or those who just enjoy working with their hands.  There must be a willingness to be open to new ideas and to work on group projects.

"When the Christian community gathers to celebrate its faith and vision, it gathers to celebrate what is most personally theirs and most nobly human and truly Church.  The actions of the assembly witness the great deeds God has done; they confirm an age-old covenant.  With such vision and depth of the assembly, can the environment be anything less than a vehicle to meet the Lord and to encounter one another?  The challenge of our environment is the final challenge of Christ:  We must make ready until he returns in glory."
