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

30 de enero: Siguiendo a Jesús

En Marcos 5, 1-20, Jesús se nos presenta de nuevo como “liberador.” Desde la fuerza del Reino, es capaz de enfrentarse a la furia de un endemoniado, que tiene atrapado a un hombre. Este encuentro de Jesús revela la situación del mundo – de nuestro mundo. Todos sabemos que vivimos bajo la amenaza de la […]

January 29: The Day of the Lord

The Scriptures today (especially Matthew 5, 1-12) pose some hard questions for us. In all the world’s craziness, do we seek – and where do we find – what’s truly wise? In all our weaknesses, do we look for – and where do we find – strength that endures? In all the choices we make, […]

What is there about us that is deserving of […]

28-29 de enero: Preparándonos para Celebrar la Misa Dominical

El domingo, vamos a empezar la lectura del llamado “Sermón de la Montaña,” tal como nos lo ha transmitido el Evangelista San Mateo. Esta pieza fundamental de la enseñanza de Jesús, la iremos leyendo durante todos esos domingos que nos faltan antes de empezar el tiempo de Cuaresma. Será buena idea leer (antes de venir […]

January 27: The Power of God

In the early 1500’s, the pace of change was quickening throughout the world. Developments in technology and travel were sweeping the globe and few were unaffected by the rapid change going on in many places. For example, the printing press was invented, sea travel to distant places was newly possible, new forms of government were […]
