St. Therese of the Child Jesus at 2301 Fifth Street, Altoona, PA 16601-3863 US - Pastor's Welcome Message

Our Parish Family welcomes you. We hope your years here will be many, peaceful and blessed for all your family. Our parish church is a diverse and dynamic community. We began as a parish in the year 1927 and have grown into an impressive presence. The members are invited and encouraged to participate fully in the life of the Church and the Community. It is through sharing the precious gifts of Time, Talent and Treasure that we have been able to initiate a wide variety of ministries, in which members actively participate in the "mission" of the Church, which is to bring Christ to our World. Our beautiful House of Prayer proclaims the faith of our members and their willingness to sacrifice and risk to build a Church where our Parish Family can gather for worship. We welcome new members and invite you to enter fully into the spirit of our Church...bringing with you and sharing the gifts God has given to you. May God bless you and your loved ones with an awareness of His all-embracing love for you.
