Mask use in our parish church is 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 18-19: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

The Catholic Scripture readings for Sunday Masses rotate on a three-year cycle. The present year is called Year A and it offers us an interesting selection of readings for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Sundays of Lent: the Samaritan Woman at the Well (John 4, 3-42); the Man Born Blind (John 9, 1-41); and the […]

16 de marzo: Escuchando la Palabra de Dios

“Escuchen mi voz,” dice Dios por medio de su profeta Jeremías (7, 23-28). Y después se queja de que el pueblo de Dios no quiere escuchar. Se escuchan a sí mismos y siguen sus propios caminos. Sus obras no hablan el lenguaje de Dios. En una palabra: no siguen a Dios. Sin embargo, la escucha […]

March 15: The Lenten Desert

The desert is the world’s most barren and arid place. It lacks the two necessary sources for life to thrive: water and vegetation. It is sparsely populated and sparing of no one. It is a place which challenges our hope and offers reminders of death. It is the perfect place to spend Lent! In what […]
