As Catholics, we believe we obtain salvation through the mercy and grace of God, but demonstrate our faith through obedience to Christ's teachings, including His teachings on service to others. Massena Catholic Community offers a variety of opportunities for individuals and families to serve their parish, community and neighbors.For more information about any of these opportunities, or to volunteer, please contact the parish office.
