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.

La naturaleza vive su propia “muerte.” Todo (la luz solar, las hojas de los árboles) va muriendo lentamente. Podríamos decir que el […]
Yesterday we celebrated the feast of All Saints. Today is the commemoration of All Souls. The Church often speaks of the totality of the baptized as “the Communion of Saints.” The word ‘Saints’ is used in the Scriptural sense, as found in the New Testament when it generally refers to baptized members of the Christian […]
