Our parish is a diverse and dynamic Catholic family community committed to Jesus Christ, guided by the Holy Spirit and relying on the patronage of His Mother, Our Lady of Refuge.

The mission of Our Lady of Refuge School is to prepare students for life in a secular world, empowered by strong moral convictions based on a Christ-centered quality education.
