Updates

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

October 27: We Are in the Hands of God

“Just take everything exactly as it is, put it in God’s hands, and leave it with Him. Then you will be able to rest in Him — really rest.” St. Theresa Benedicta of the Cross When we lift our problems up to God, we must also be willing to offer ourselves to Him. This includes […]

October 23: The Day of the Lord

A man who had recently filed for bankruptcy was asked how it happened that he needed to take such an action. He said, “It happened very gradually. And then very suddenly.” We often think we are safe from the temptation to be like the Pharisee in today’s Gospel (Luke 18, 9-14). We think of ourselves […]

23 de octubre: El Día del Señor

Hoy, de nuevo, Jesús pone delante de la pantalla de nuestra vida el trato personal que hemos de tener con Dios. Nos marca una hoja de ruta para alcanzar la perfección en la oración. ¡Qué bueno sería que nos analizásemos un poco! ¿Cómo está nuestra relación con el Señor? ¿Ya existe? ¿Es distante o cercana? […]
