St. Bernadette Parishioners Core Values:

*Welcoming – We see Jesus in all who we encounter
“Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.” Romans 15:7 
 
*Prayerful – We begin all we do in prayer with and for each other
“I call upon thee, for thou wilt answer me, O God; incline thy ear to me, hear my words.” Psalm 17:6
 
*Moved by the Spirit – We listen and respond to the Holy Spirit
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 
gentleness and self-control.” Galatians 5:22
 
*Family-Focused – we are part of the body of Christ and we nurture each member’s vocation – married life, single life, priesthood and religious 
Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth.  It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.  1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NRS
 
*Community Outreach – A faith-filled passion to generously be God’s hands and feet
“And the king answering, shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.”  Matthew 25:40
