This financially-stable parish has been active in witness and outreach for over a century with a deep connection to its neighborhood and city.

Wichita is Kansas’ largest city and has the cultural and institutional amenities of a much larger city with a cost of living well below the national average. (Forbes.com Cost-of-Living Comparison Tool)
