We, the Parish of Saint Gregory the Great Catholic Church, are an integral part of the Catholic Diocese of Richmond. We proclaim God's love and the Good News of Jesus Christ to all by embracing the Church's Sacred Scriptures and teachings.
We are committed to strengthening our Mission of Service by encouraging stewardship centered on ways to better serve our parish and community as set forth in the themes of Catholic Social Teachings. We believe our faith is expressed by our diversity, inclusiveness and commitment to serve others. We encourage all to join in our Community by participating in our worship and volunteering to share their time, God-given gifts, and talents.
Pentecost:
The Church’s Birthday
by Rev. Lawrence Rice, CSP
Each year the Church celebrates 50 days of Easter, culminating at the feast of Pentecost. Pentecost marks the occasion of God’s sending the Holy Spirit upon Jesus’ disciples after his resurrection. Before Pentecost, the disciples were unsure of what they were to do next, and spent most of their time in hiding. After Pentecost, and the gift of the Holy Spirit, they understood their mission to spread the Good News of Jesus, and they had the courage to come out of hiding and speak openly about who Jesus was, and what he had accomplished by his dying and rising.
