Christ Renews His Parish, also known as “Chirp” for short, is a personal and parish spiritual renewal process, with separate groups for men and women. The renewal begins with an overnight stay at St Jude, where you will experience God in many ways, especially through His unconditional love for all.  Like the cross, you will grow both vertically and horizontally as you renew and deepen your relationship with Christ and at the same time make new and lasting friendships with fellow parishioners.  

So take a break from your busy life, spend some quality time with God and fellow Catholics, and watch your Faith and our parish blossom.  As one Chirper said, “Not knowing what to expect from the CRHP overnight, I was overwhelmed by the love and warmth of the leaders. Their honesty and humility of their faith journey encouraged me to see how God is always at work in me, too.”  

"As a body is one though it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also Christ. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body." (1 Cor. 12:12-13)

Tim J. - It was a blessing to grow in my faith as well as getting to know these guys, whom I have been sitting next to in the pews for the past 15 years but never knew. We are truly One Body in Christ.

Anthony C. - CRHP is making me a better person, the person I want to be. It started me on a journey of renewal.

Women's Group:
Stella R. - Sharing with so many caring and loving women the ups and downs and knowing they are there for me always!!  Love you all my dear Sisters!

Maureen C. - My favorite thing, being new to the parish, was meeting so many wonderful women of faith.  The experience of sharing was the start of development of some friendships that I most likely would not have done.  You can feel the Holy Spirit’s influence in CRHP.

JoAnn P. - My favorite thing about CRHP is the friendships I have made with beautiful Catholic Christian women.  Each one has strengthened my faith in their own way.  I am truly blessed!
