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

2 de octubre: El Día del Señor

Las lecturas que la Iglesia nos ofrece hoy en la Misa nos recuerdan que la Fe nunca es un asunto privado, aunque sea personal. La Comunidad católica, de la que nosotros formamos parte, debe ofrecer y facilitar los medios necesarios para cuidar, madurar, compartir, y transmitir la Fe. Por nuestra parte, necesitamos construir una comunidad […]
