Mission:

We, the parish community of St. Gertrude Parish in Vandergrift, Pa., are proud of our long tradition of family, faith and fellowship.

Called into Christ as priest, prophet and king, by our baptism, we seek to strengthen and deepen our love of him and one another.

We are committed to "building up the body of Christ: through word, worship, evangelization, leadership, service, stewardship and community.

May that commitment extend to all parishioners from birth to eternity, to all we are called to service, and to all we seek and welcome into our parish community.

For we are each called to be the light of the world.
