Our Mission
Into
our second century, with a community of over 1800
families, we find
ourselves with a strong sense of parish involvement and concern for our
neighbors. Rooted in our sacramental celebrations of the Eucharist, we
seek to shape our future in a positive way through our parish school,
religious education, youth ministry programs and numerous Christian
services. While maintaining a strong sense of Catholic tradition, we
look
for ways to revitalize our Christian values through more openness to
God's word and our gospel call to love God and neighbor. Trusting in
the Holy Spirit, we seek new ways of being church for members, active
or not, as well as reaching out to the wider community.
History
Located
on the north bank of the Merrimack River in Lowell,
the Parish
of St. Michael was established in 1883 to service the needs of the
largely
Irish immigrant community of Centralville and Dracut. For a short time
this
working class community met in a nearby firehouse until the people
moved
to the present location on Sixth Street. A school was founded in 1889
by
the Dominican Sisters to educate our children and instill the knowledge
and appreciation of Catholic tradition.
