St. Rita Parish
Pastoral Council
Social Justice Works
Our Pastoral Council developed a project for our Organizations to communicate and learn about the people of
our missions. For many years our parish has been supporting and communicating with the missions of Kasisi in Africa,
St. Catherin's in Alaska, and the Swinomish Spirituality Center in LaConner, Wa.
Not simply an exchange of letters, this helps us realize the values associated with being a Jesuit Parish
such as a real concern for the well being of others and a spirituality that moves us forward
The following are the Missions of our Organizations:
- Kasisi Mission of Africa - Holy Name Society
- Kasisi Children's Home in Africa - Rita Teens
- St. Catherine's in Chefornak, Alaska - St. Frances Sodality

Guided by the Holy Spirit we bring blessings and help to others as well as people whom we will never meet.
