• We meet people & friends at Saint Alphonsus Liguori who attend Mass or events, bible studies, Senior Fun Club, etc. - this does not automatically make you a parishioner

• You may even think that they are because you attend Mass weekly

• But you may NOT be in any records as a registered parishioner.

Why Register?

Registering is important so that we can serve your needs and have your contact information.

For example, only recently, our priest attempted to follow up with someone who was in the hospital, only he/she was not a registered parishioner so we had no contact information to reach them.
Registering is important so we can record your donations and contributions to the church

This past tax season, more than 1 family was disappointed that their weekly/monthly/Holiday contributions were not recorded in a tax letter. Only registered parishioners have accounts and have their donations recorded for them.
