Our Mission Statement
St. Robert Bellarmine is a Catholic Faith
Community deeply steeped in religious
tradition, a viable melting pot of ethnic

We are challenged to unify by accepting the

We spread the word of God with lives
committed to the teachings of Jesus Christ. By reaching out to our parish family and the community, we translate our faith into works of love so the kingdom of God may unfold in our midst.
