Who Was St. Raymond of Penafort?

Our parish is named after a pretty amazing guy—St. Raymond of Penafort. He was a Spanish Dominican friar who lived way back in the 13th century (yeah, that’s a long time ago!). He was known for his wisdom, his dedication to serving the Church, and his work in canon law. But more than that, he was a man of deep faith who spent his life helping others grow closer to God.

We try to live up to his example by being a place where people can encounter Christ, learn about their faith, and serve those in need. St. Raymond’s legacy inspires us to be a parish that’s rooted in tradition but always looking for new ways to share God’s love.

What’s Our Parish Like?

First off, our church is beautiful. If you appreciate stunning architecture, you’ll love stepping inside. But more importantly, it’s a sacred space where we come together to worship, pray, and celebrate the sacraments. Whether it’s a quiet weekday Mass, a lively Sunday service, or a special feast day, there’s always something happening to nourish your soul.

We’re not just about Sunday Mass, though. Our parish is a community—a family. We have faith formation programs for kids and adults, Bible studies, prayer groups, and social events that help us connect with each other. From coffee hours to volunteer opportunities, there’s a place for everyone here.

How Do We Serve the Community?

One of the things we’re most passionate about is serving others. Inspired by the Gospel, we’re committed to making a difference in Enfield and beyond. Whether it’s feeding the hungry, supporting local charities, or advocating for justice, we believe faith should be lived out in action.

We also host events throughout the year that bring people together—everything from parish picnics to Advent retreats. These aren’t just fun (though they definitely are!); they’re also chances to deepen our faith and build friendships.

Why Should You Check Us Out?

If you’re looking for a parish that feels like home, where you can grow in faith and make a real impact, we’d love to meet you. Whether you’re Catholic, exploring the faith, or just searching for a community that cares, you’re welcome here.

Come for Mass, stay for the coffee and conversation, and see what God is doing in our little corner of Enfield. We can’t wait to get to know you!
