Covenants, Ministries & Schedule
Covenants
St. Augustine's is a vibrant parish where its members are active in the many ministries that put our mission into action!
​
Each year, parishioners sign a covenant in which they commit to serving in one or more ministries for one year. ​We invite you to sign up for a ministry or two that interests you - maybe something new and different this year, or perhaps in the same ministry you served during the past year!

Ministries
Parish Life & Worship Ministries
​Deepening Faith Through Experience & Celebration
The Parish Life & Worship Ministries nourish and give direction to the liturgical aspect of parish life. These ministries ensure that parishioners are provided with opportunities to deepen their faith through a variety of prayer experiences and liturgical celebrations. All ministers are required to complete Safe Environment Training.
​
Parish Outreach Ministries
​Sharing the Love of Christ
The Parish Outreach Ministries discern the needs of persons in the parish and wider community, especially the poor, and identify resources to meet these needs, enlisting the active cooperation of parishioners. These ministries acknowledge our baptismal call to service and work for justice. The ministries’ scope of responsibility is two-fold: to meet immediate needs and to work for changes in structures of society.
​
Spiritual Development Ministries
Receiving the True Body & Blood of Jesus Christ
Spiritual Development is a life-long process aimed at personal conversion and growth in faith. These ministries design, implement, and evaluate the total Catholic Christian educational and formational process in the parish. This includes sacramental preparation, formational and educational programs for adults, youth and children, and various opportunities for spiritual and social experiences.
​
Stewardship Ministries
​Deepening Our Baptismal Life
The Stewardship Ministry makes recommendations to the Pastoral Council concerning all aspects of parish finance and budget: personnel, stewardship of resources, church and fund-raising coordination, and upkeep of the physical facilities and properties of the parish. The activities and recommendations of this ministry are firmly rooted in the Biblical concept of stewardship.
