Parish Staff

The staff of St. Paul Parish is dedicated to living out the Gospel of Jesus Christ in our various ministries to help build up the Kingdom of God here in Highland.  In serving Our Lord in our respective vocations, we desire to deepen the Catholic faith in the lives of all our parishioners. Together, we strive to hand on the Catholic faith that has been handed onto us, heeding the charge that St. Paul, our patron, gave to St. Timothy: “proclaim the Word; be persistent whether it is convenient or inconvenient; convince, reprimand, encourage through all patience and teaching” (2 Tm 4:2).

We pray that God will continue to abundantly bless our parish and each one of you with whom we cross paths as, strengthened by Our Lord in the Eucharist, we strive to live out our baptismal calling.

Our Mission

We, the people of St. Paul Parish are a Roman Catholic Community, who believe in Jesus and His message. As the people of God, we are aware of our call to know Jesus intimately, and to proclaim Him and His message by our faith, words, and actions. We are comprised of unique individuals who are willing to share a great variety of personal gifts in order to become a unified people that will be a living expression of Jesus to those around us. We have a serious responsibility of service to others on a local, national, and international level, and, above all, to the most needy by responding to the needs of others. We aspire to make Jesus and His message of salvation a living reality in our world.
