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 9: How Important is Prayer for Us?

There are several moments in the Gospels when Jesus withdraws from the crowds and even His disciples in order to pray (alone). Occasionally, He would use this time to prepare for an important task, to recharge after having done something important, or in order to teach His disciples about the importance of prayer. He would […]

9 de enero: Enseñando con Autoridad

Según el Evangelio de Marcos (1, 21-28), “Todos se preguntaron estupefactos: ‘¿Qué es esto? Este enseñar con autoridad es nuevo.’” La auténtica “autoridad” es la que tienen aquellas personas que ayudan a los demás a sacar adelante la vida, a organizarse, y a caminar.

January 8: The Baptism of the Lord

Como su nombre indica, en él no hay nada “especial” – no es el tiempo de las grandes fiestas, no es el momento de las grandes celebraciones. Es el tiempo de “la hora que no brilla,” en la que se construye la vida. Así, […]

January 7: The Day of the Lord

On this Feast of the Epiphany of the Lord, the Scriptures offer us a stellar “cast of characters” – Joseph and Mary, the star in the East, and the magi (the seekers who want to adore the newborn King). All of these “central players” stand in stark contrast to Herod … who lacks far more […]

7 de enero: El Día del Señor

Celebramos hoy la Fiesta de la Epifanía del Señor: “la manifestación” de Dios a todos en el mundo, en su Hijo, Jesucristo, el Mesías. Precisamente, los Magos del relato Evangélico (Mateo 2, 1-12), venidos de Oriente, simbolizan a la gente de todas las razas y de todos los pueblos que descubren en Cristo al Hijo […]
