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

July 22: St. Mary Magdalene

On this Feast of St. Mary Magdalene, we are reminded that she went to the tomb early Easter Sunday morning. She was not able to recognize the Risen Jesus until He called her by name. Gradual recognition and understanding, or in some cases blindness and misunderstanding, are a stage on the path to belief and […]

22 de julio: Santa María Magdalena

July 20 / 20 de julio: Good Soil / La Tierra Buena

Nuestra vida abierta a Dios, como “la tierra buena” (según Mateo 13, 1-9) hace que su Palabra pueda dar fruto en nosotros, con una vida reconciliada, humanizada, y humanizadora en Cristo y en su Evangelio. Cristo nos llama a reconocer que a veces somos tierra reseca, o llena de piedras, o cargada de espinos… Y […]

July 18-19: Peaceful, Steady, and Calm Perseverance

It is possible that many of us have been surprised on occasion by how God works so dramatically in our lives. It is unrealistic, however, to expect that God will reveal Himself to us in dramatic, life changing, and mighty ways all the time. While it is true that God works in this way, it […]
