About St. John Neumann Catholic Church

Parish History

St. John Neumann Church was originally a mission of the St. Joseph Parish.  From our first Sunday morning Mass in February 1977, to what has now grown to over 1,650 families, a nationally recognized Blue Ribbon School and a dynamic Religious Education program, our parish celebrates its many blessings.

Mission Statement

The mission of St. John Neumann Parish is to provide an environment that allows us to experience our oneness with Christ and with each other, by promoting the Faith, celebrating the sacraments and providing programs for Catholic education, spiritual renewal and corporal works of mercy to all people.

Vision Statement

St. John Neumann Parish will strive to become a faith community that both understands and practices responsible stewardship by developing a recognition among our people that all they have and all they are is a pure gift from God and He calls them to use these gifts to build up the Kingdom of Christ.

We will continue to work, as we have in the past, to offer liturgical worship to meet the various needs of the parish.

We will address the Catholic education of our people through programs for our youth and for adults, including our senior citizens.

We will complement our programs of education with programs for spiritual growth and development through the efforts of our Liturgy Committee.

We will reach out to those Catholics who no longer consider themselves part of the Church either because of apathy, alienation, or because they are not in agreement with the teachings of the Church.

We will work to coordinate our efforts with other Catholic churches in the Columbia area in making our faith better understood and we will promote among our own people a better understanding of other faiths through participation in ecumenical activities.
