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 diciembre: Para Dios, Nada es Imposible

En la vida cristiana, no basta decir “Señor, Señor” para poner las bases sólidas que el seguimiento de Jesús necesita. El Adviento nos recuerda en particular que es necesario escuchar la Palabra de Dios; para ello hay que acallar nuestra palabrería vacía y abrirnos a la sorpresa de un Dios que se comunica. Esto muchas […]

December 2: Nothing is Impossible for God

Living an “Advent Way of Life” today is supremely challenging in a world filled with cruelty, violence, corruption, and a godlessness that promotes injustice and seemingly rewards selfishness.

30 de noviembre: La Venida del Señor (y San Andrés)

La palabra adviento viene del latín y significa “venida” o “llegada.” Según el Papa Benedicto, “la venida del Señor” significa que “la puerta oscura del tiempo, del futuro, ha sido abierta de par en par. Quien tiene esperanza vive de otra manera.” Sabemos de experiencia que es muy fácil dejarse consumir por el bullicio de […]

November 30: A Holy Season (and St. Andrew)

In an effort to make the most of this holy season of Advent, we are encouraged this year to create an “Advent Way of Life.” Instead of focusing only on the Sundays leading up to Christmas or on Christmas itself, this “Advent Way of Life” is a “style” of living focused (every day) on the […]
