Words of Wisdom:
“America, it is said, is suffering from intolerance — it is not. It is suffering from tolerance. Tolerance of right and wrong, truth and error, virtue and evil, Christ and chaos. Our country is not nearly so overrun with the bigoted as it is overrun with the broadminded.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

“The refusal to take sides on great moral issues is itself a decision. It is a silent acquiescence to evil. The tragedy of our time is that those who still believe in honesty lack fire and conviction, while those who believe in dishonesty are full of passionate conviction.”
― Fulton J. Sheen

We are people of God of the Roman Catholic parish family of Saint Patrick, Kent. Through our baptism, we prayerfully use our varied God-given talents and treasures in our particular vocations in life, and in performing the spiritual and corporal works of mercy, to promote peace and justice. Together we celebrate Christ's presence in worship and sacraments.


We emphasize the importance of religious education for all our members. By reflecting God's love and proclaiming the Gospel, we earnestly desire to promote community with family, friends and neighbors, and so further the kingdom of God..
