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

7 de abril: El Día del Señor (Domingo de la Divina Misericordia)

Celebramos hoy el segundo Domingo de Pascua, Domingo de la Divina Misericordia: “Den gracias al Señor porque es bueno, porque es eterna su misericordia.” Así canta la Iglesia en la Octava de Pascua, casi recogiendo de labios de Cristo estas palabras del Salmo … de labios de Cristo Resucitado, que en el Cenáculo da el […]

April 5-6: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

Although many things have bounced back pretty well since our experience of a worldwide pandemic, there are still a lot of us facing anxieties and worries each day about what hasn’t bounced back, what still remains uncertain.

In Catholic worship and liturgy, we use this language to describe “the eighth day” itself or the whole period […]

March 4: Easter Week / La Semana de Pascua

The Gospels of St. John and St. Luke use the same expression for Jesus’ presence among His disciples (after the Resurrection) in the upper room: “He stood among them.” St. John says that they were huddled together, with the doors locked, for fear of the Jews (20, 19). It might seem obvious, but Jesus did […]

April 3: Easter Week / La Semana de Pascua

The “art of listening” is an art which is fading away. We really listen to each other so rarely anymore. So often, we are racing ahead in nearly all of our conversations, planning what we will say in response or figuring out how to get our “two cents” in. Jesus, by contrast, was an expert […]
