ANNOUNCEMENT

Spirit of the Mountain Cluster is collecting food donations for the Lebanon Community Food Pantry. If any Cluster parishioners wish to donate to the pantry (items most needed canned fruit, vegetables, soup, and meat), bring the items to your Mass and place them in bags at the back of the Church. Father Emmanuel will transport them to Lebanon and put them in the basket to be taken to the Pantry. Items in glass jars and with expired dates are not accepted.


 

Welcome to the Spirit of the Mountain Cluster!

Look, there on the mountains, the feet of one who brings good news, who proclaims peace! Celebrate your festivals, Judah, and fulfill your vows. No more will the wicked invade you; they will be completely destroyed.
Nahum 1:15

We, members of the Spirit of the Mountains Cluster Parishes in the Catholic Diocese of Richmond, are committed to shaping our lives in the image of Christ through active evangelization.

 

Spirit of the Mountain cluster is composed of three Catholic Churches; Good Shepherd Catholic Church located in Lebanon, Virginia, St. Mary’s Catholic Church located in Coeburn, Virginia and St. Therese’s Catholic Church located in St. Paul, Virginia.
