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

January 28: The Day of the Lord

“Amazement” is what they call “a running theme” throughout the Gospel of St. Mark. The word (and its synonyms, like “wonder” and “surprise”) appear at least twenty four times in the Gospel (which runs only sixteen chapters in length). The people in the synagogue in Capernaum (Mark 1, 21-28) did not have a clue about […]

28 de enero: El Día del Señor

Al escucharle, los vecinos de Jesús se dieron cuenta de que ahí había algo diferente (Marcos 1, 21-28). Hablaba un verdadero profeta. Y lo hacía con autoridad – la autoridad que viene de Dios. Eso es lo que el Resucitado ha compartido con nosotros. El Evangelio, la Palabra de Dios, está cerca de nosotros, y […]

January 27-28: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

In Sunday’s Gospel (Mark 1, 21-28) the people of Capernaum recognize Jesus who had come to their synagogue as a teacher, and not just any old teacher, but a teacher who was very different from the teachers they had grown used to, the scribes, the experts in the Jewish Law. Jesus’ teaching, we are told, […]

27-28 de enero: Preparándonos para Celebrar la Misa Dominical

El Evangelio de la Misa del domingo nos hablará de la enseñanza de Jesús en la sinagoga de Cafarnaúm (Marcos 1, 21-28). No se han recogen sus palabras, pero serían de gracia, como las que pronunció en la sinagoga de Nazaret (Lucas 4, 18-21). Les hablaría del Reino de Dios que está cerca, que Dios […]

January 26: Saints Timothy and Titus / Santos Timoteo y Titus

Saints Timothy and Titus were among the earliest bishops and pastors of the Church. Both died toward the end of the first century. They were disciples and associates of Saint Paul and who seem to have attended the Council of Jerusalem with him. Saint Timothy represented St. Paul to various communities and, according to tradition, […]

January 25: Adoration / Adoración

In the Second Book of Samuel (chapter 6), the Ark of the Covenant was placed in Jerusalem, in a special tent prepared for it. David, as King, offered sacrifices and peace offerings and then blessed the people in the name of God. The Ark was a symbol of the presence of God among His people. […]
