MISSION STATEMENT
Saint Bridget Parish is a Roman Catholic community dedicated to being a part of God's Family in East Falls. With the graces received from the Holy Spirit at Baptism, and the use of our personal talents, we strive first of all to provide a welcoming atmosphere for worship. Relying also on the help of Mary, Mother of the Church, we want to welcome all those whose Faith has grown either lukewarm or cold, and those who have never known the Church. We wish to serve the wider community as well, with particular attention to the poor and sick. Conscious of our call to teach first by good example to young and old, as Jesus Christ did, we proclaim our love for Him and His teachings, and wish to hand down this treasure of Catholic teaching to all, both now and for future generations of believers.
