— A LIVING TRADITION
That Unites Us
In Worship
and Service.
Rooted in our Polish heritage, we welcome people of every background to celebrate faith as one family.
✦ WELCOME TO OUR PARISH
The Saint Florian
We, the parishioners at Saint Florian Roman Catholic Parish, are preserving elements of our Polish heritage, serving Americans and immigrants of all ethnic backgrounds through unique outreach and good works. Through the spiritual and social activities of this Parish, we seek to be a beacon to all God’s people.
Florian was born about 250 A.D. in Cetium (now St. Pölten). He joined the Roman army and advanced to the ranks. However, the Emperor Diocletian was in power at the time, during which time St. Florian refused to carry out a Roman order to persecute the Christians. He was eventually martyred for his steadfast faith.
Standing on the foundations, Florian is reputed to have challenged the Roman soldiers to light it in fire, saying it could not catch fire. Supernatural in his deeds, it is the custom of many in the Church to honor St. Florian when their town or building was first built by Christians and had remained in their hands ever since.
St. Florians feast day is May 4th.
MISSION STATEMENT

✦OUR SHEPHERDS
The Society
of Christ.
The Mission of the Society of Christ is to provide pastoral care to Poles around the world — serving the Church through the personal witness of a holy life, by spreading the devotion of the Most Sacred, affirmed by the fulfilling its assistance to the Catholic Church. The Society of life is to adhere to those among the faithful and, at the appropriate time, bring the news of Polish people who live outside the borders of Poland.
Significantly, the Society of Christ Fathers which has formed a unique priestly life, is based on the charism of its founder — Servant of God Cardinal August Hlond — as well as the Society’s tradition.
“St. Florian Parish has served the community for more than 120 years, welcoming over 500 families and offering multiple weekly Masses supported by dozens of devoted volunteers.”

LIVES TOUCHED
Misja
Parafia Św. Floriana założona ponad 100 lat temu miała na celu pomóc polskim emigrantom w wyrażaniu ich religijnych uczuć w ojczystym języku. Do dzisiaj spełnia tę rolę lecz w jeszcze bardziej poszerzonym zakresie. Obecnie wspólnotę Parafii Św. Floriana tworzą nie tylko Polacy ale rownież wierni innych narodowości oraz amerykańska społeczność lokalna. Wierni gromadzą się w tym świętym miejscu i odnajdują swoją religijną narodową tożsamość.
Towarzystwo Chrystusowe dla Polonii Zagranicznej
Towarzystwo Chrystusowe dla Polonii Zagranicznej, wypełniając swoją misję w Kościele powszechnym, włącza się w apostolstwo na rzecz Rodaków przebywających poza granicami kraju.
