Our Mission

Unite, Reach Out in Love, and Transform in Christ

St Patrick's Parish is a community called by God to live out the Gospel message in our daily lives. Our mission is rooted in three essential pillars that guide everything we do.

Through prayer, service, and fellowship, we strive to be the hands and feet of Christ in Putaruru and beyond.

Parish Mission

Our Three Pillars

The foundation of our parish life

Unite

Building Community

We are called to be one body in Christ, united in faith and love. Through the celebration of the Eucharist and parish fellowship, we strengthen the bonds that make us a true family of God.

Reach Out in Love

Serving Others

Following Christ's example, we extend compassion and charity to those in need. Our outreach ministries serve the poor, the sick, the lonely, and all who seek God's love and mercy.

Transform in Christ

Growing in Faith

Through prayer, the sacraments, and continuous formation, we are transformed by God's grace. We commit to ongoing spiritual growth and discipleship in Christ.
