Who we are

A parish rooted in faith and community

St. Leo the Great Parish is a vibrant Roman Catholic community united in worship, evangelization, and service to God's people. Rooted in the Holy Eucharist and faithfully guided by the Magisterium of the Church, the parish journeys as one family of God, growing in faith, sustained by hope, and animated by love. We are committed to deepening spiritual life through active participation in the sacraments, nurturing Christian formation, and fostering a welcoming and missionary Church for all. The true dignity of the Christian is to be united to Christ. — St. Leo the Great

Our parish encompasses nine active sub-parishes, dozens of apostolic groups, and thousands of faithful Catholics united in worship, fellowship, and service.
