Beautiful church. But the sign is confusing. None of the 9 nuclear power countries have signed this agreement. So the only countries that they're illegal in, are the countries that never had them.
I live near the parish, and am an actual member. This parish is exceptionally welcoming and supportive. Parish activities focus on providing for the poor and disenfranchised. It's less about extreme emphasis on rituals smells and bells and more about true support of the community. The parish works with other faith communities to welcome refugees into our community. We're preparing for our second family, which is expected to arrive from Afghanistan in the next few weeks.
Easily the most Progressively friendly parish in Massachusetts. Father Steve understands the meaning of being a true Christian.
A member of Saint Susanna’s Parish. Our Pastor provides outstanding sermons and insights to our lives and our world. Our Music Ministry is wonderful, and we are active in helping those in need in many communities. I hope that readers would considering joining us! All are welcome! Dan Head
I have been extremely fortunate to be a parishioner at Saint Susanna's for nearly 10 years. "All Are Welcome" is the first message that one sees when coming to the church. I have found this message to be very true and a guiding principle for our parish. Fr. Steve strives to make everyone feel important, respected, and loved, and I have found that all of the members of the parish also strive to live by this principle. Saint Susanna's is truly a wonderful church, and I would encourage anyone in the area to come check it out, because "All Are Welcome!"
You'll want to attend St Susanna's if you're looking for welcoming people, excellent music, the best educational programs, well-prepared and challenging homilies, and parishioners who volunteer their time and money to support the parish and social justice. Fr. Steve leads a parish focused on action, helping others, and constantly discerning what being a Christian means in this world.
My family and I have been members of the Saint Susanna Parish for around 4 years. We found this community after trying several other local communities, where we ultimately felt like something was missing. Like many in the community, we continue to attend Saint Susanna, even after moving to a different town. The introduction of online masses during COVID has made that even easier. We found that the "All Are Welcome" sign out front isn't a platitude - the St. Susanna community authentically welcomes us every Sunday. Further, the community regularly engages in thoughtful debate with the goal of solidifying the fundamentals of our faith - something I wish more Catholics would embrace. :
A wonderful parish. A place that provides many opportunities to live out your faith. A warm and welcoming community that spreads the gospel message and encourages people to work for a society that reflects that message. Fr. Steve’s daily reflections, Sunday homilies and care and concern for all give voice to the Word and how to live out our lives according to that Word.
Do not go to this church unless you are looking to embrace secularism instead of Christ.
My wife and I attended St. Susanna for a couple years while living in Boston. We love Fr. Steve and the parish community for its openness and focusing on Catholic ideas of equality and helping the sick/underprivileged. Each week, we eagerly anticipated Fr. Steve's homily and hearing how we can use our Catholic teachings in modern society. We sincerely miss this church and its mission, and I think anyone looking for a church that is focused on helping the disadvantaged will find a home here. All are welcome!
