Updates

October 2, 2022 Update: Mask use in our parish church is now optional but recommended. Masks are recommended in order to protect the more vulnerable in our community, like children and those with compromised immunities. If you are sick in any way or even feeling a little “under the weather,” please stay home! Our concern is for your good health and the good health of those in the pews around you. Thank you.

What's Happening

March 23: Adoration

As Catholics, we receive the Eucharist during Mass. However, there is another opportunity for us to experience the Blessed Sacrament through Eucharistic Adoration. The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains the importance of incorporating adoration into our prayers to God: “Adoration is the first attitude of man acknowledging that he is a creature before his […]

Para ellos el haber descubierto a Jesús de Nazareth era algo tan importante y fundamental que sus vidas habían cambiado para siempre. Se daban cuenta que el proyecto de Jesús era algo muy serio y que no era fácil seguirlo. Las […]
