Our Parish Vision Statement
St Philip Neri Parish will be grounded on the ideals of our Patron Saint; charity, cheerfulness
and humility, as we foster encounters with the transformative love of Jesus Christ. We
envision a welcoming community and joyful liturgical celebrations, characterized by
inspirational homilies, beautiful music and conscious participation by all parishioners. We
will listen and respond to the needs of the faithful and disengaged. We will provide lifelong
faith formation for all ages, focused on deepening a personal relationship with Jesus. We
will be the hands and feet of Christ as we actively perform corporal works of mercy and
serve those in need in the Upper Perkiomen Valley.
