Welcome to Saint Benedict Catholic Church!

Saint Benedict Parish is a Roman Catholic community of faith located in Anchorage Alaska, in the Archdiocese of Anchorage-Juneau.
We are a community of Christian stewards, working to live and preach the Word of God in thought, word and deed.
We do this by the joyful and reverent celebration of the Sacraments of the Church and by the intentional formation of disciples of Christ, so that we may witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all that we meet in our local community. Please join us in our mission of faith to the people of Southwest Anchorage! We are a welcoming Catholic community called by God to live out the message of Christ in love and service.

As the various COVID-19 vaccines make their way to Alaska, I know there are many questions that stem from the plethora of articles present on the Internet. There is a lot of good information and a lot of poor and misleading information out there. I recommend you read the Executive Summary on the topic of vaccines from the National Catholic Bioethics Center at the following link: https://www.ncbcenter.org/ncbc-resources-for-covid19 . Click on "NCBC Resources on the Pandemic," and thereafter, "Points to Consider on the Use of COVID-19 Vaccines (Dec. 7, 2020)." I find the NCBC analysis of the pandemic and the emerging vaccines to be morally sound and in alignment with Catholic teachings. Ultimately, choosing to be vaccinated is a matter of personal conscience. Let us continue to keep close in our prayers all who are affected by this pandemic and in gratitude for those who sacrifice daily for our well-being. -- Fr. Tom
