We, the pastor and members of St. Patrick Parish, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, recognize that we are called to union with God, not merely as individuals, but as a holy community, the People of God.
Within this community there exists a variety of ministries and gifts of the Spirit which enable all to work for the good of the whole. Formed by the Word of God, we recognize our unity of faith and love and accept our common responsibility for the mission of Christ.
