St Columba Catholic Church

What St Columba Catholic Church does

St. Columba Catholic Church is a Catholic parish located at 2700 W. Main St., Dothan, Alabama, serving the Houston and Henry counties area of Southeast Alabama within the Diocese. (Note: firmographic data records the city as Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, but all operational details — address, phone area code 334, contact staff, and self-description — place the parish in Dothan, AL.) The parish delivers the full range of Catholic sacramental ministry — Baptism, Reconciliation, Holy Eucharist, Confirmation, Matrimony, Anointing of the Sick, and Holy Orders — alongside weekly Sunday Mass offered in both English and Spanish, either in person or via YouTube live stream. It supports a broad ecosystem of ministries including Youth Ministry (K-12 tracks: elementary, EDGE middle school, LifeTeen high school), Music Ministry (adult choir, children's choir, LifeTeen band, steel drum band, audio ministry), Hispanic Ministry, Respect Life, Evangelization, Iona Group Senior Ministry, Music, Cursillo, Prayer Chain, ELL program, Mothers Morning Out, and a Care Team.

The parish runs a digital infrastructure built on the eCatholic website platform, integrated with Breeze Church Management System for events/calendar, YouTube for bilingual live streaming, Facebook and Instagram for community engagement, and an Online Giving platform that supports annual pledges, special gifts, planned giving, and memorials. Pastoral leadership comprises Fr. Fred Boni (Pastor), Fr. Richard Perkins (Parochial Vicar), Deacons Joe Mueller and Eric Brickman (Parish Manager), and Leticia Gordillo (Director of Hispanic Ministry), with a total staff headcount of 11-50.

As a nonprofit religious organization, St. Columba Catholic Church generates revenue through parishioner stewardship (tithes, annual pledges, online giving, special gifts, planned giving, and memorials) rather than commercial pricing. No revenue, attendance, or enrollment figures are publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is community-based — parish registration, newcomer outreach, and diocesan affiliation — with no commercial sales motion, and there are no external investors, funding rounds, acquisitions, or subsidiaries associated with the entity.
