I am the Pastor and Priest of Saint Bonaventure Parish.  Years ago we made the decision to Re-Brand and to Cultivate a Mission of Growth and of Fellowship.  We have been succesful in our endeavor to create a home for our parish family but now we need a permanent home.  The pandempic of 2020 which has carried over into 2021 delayed that dream but our hearts push ever-foraward to realizing God's promise of Faithfulness.  I call on all current and past members of our community, the Summerville community at-large, friends and family and everyone who believes in a church that has the goal of dicipleship through serving the community.  That is our Mission - to serve our community, our neighbor and the families within that need the Fellowship of our Catholic Community.

This Church is without question my heart and I pray with your help we can accomplish our goals.  To be Good Stewards, we must build God a home in the community, to be a place of Worship, Fellowship, Learning and Sacramental Blessing for our Inner Family and that of the Summerville Community.  Stewardship means that we must not waste anything and that we need everyone to take on this responsibility as a personal dedication toward Our Lord and our Neighbors.  Christ commissioned us and I as you to hold on to that commission.  

Please share this with your Friends, Family, Colleagues and Neighbors. Tell a Stranger and invite them.  We need your support and your Love.  Amen.
