Mission Statement
The Community Life Commission is committed to providing a welcoming, hospitable atmosphere throughout the parish community. The commission fosters interaction and communication among parish organizations, encourages broad-based parishioner involvement in parish life and ministry, and promotes opportunities for community building.

Recent Highlights
The Community Life Commission planned and coordinated the inauguration of the Holy Family Welcome Center. Located in the Gathering Area, the Welcome Center is open on most Sundays (weather permitting) from 7:30 a.m. until approximately 2:00 p.m. In a spirit of hospitality and community-building, the Welcome Center is a place where parishioners and visitors can learn about parish life, discover ministry opportunities, and find materials about Archdiocesan, regional, and national events and faith enrichment programs.
