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

31 de agosto: ¡Los Que Tienen el Don de Muchos Años!

Atender a los miembros de la parroquia y a los vecinos no católicos (¡que tienen el don de muchos años!) as de suma importancia.

28-29 de agosto: Preparándonos para Celebrar la Misa Dominical

Vamos a estar reunidos alrededor del Altar del Señor para escuchar la Palabra de Dios y para sentarnos y comer a su Mesa. “Escuchar” quiere decir no simplemente oír lo que el Señor tiene que decirnos, sino permitir que su Palabra guíe nuestra vida. Pero incluso nuestra obediencia a la Palabra de Dios no debería […]

August 28-29: Preparing for this Sunday’s Mass

As we see in Mark 7, 1-23, Jesus’ integrity is always validated by words and deeds; He does what He says and He says what He does. The pure of heart, and Jesus is the purest […]

28 de agosto: Fiesta de San Agustín

Como San Agustín, algunos necesitan la mitad de su vida para descubrir que estaban equivocados, o quizás para tener el valor de ser suficientemente honestos consigo mismos y para enfrentarse a Dios y a sí mismos.
