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

April 9: The Wind Blows Where It Pleases….

The Old Testament of the Bible reminds us on occasion that: “Just as you do not know how the breath comes to the bones in the mother’s womb, so you do not know the work of God, who makes everything.” (Qoheleth 11, 5). The words of Jesus in the New Testament (John 3, 7-15) may […]

April 8: The Annunciation of the Lord / La Anunciación del Señor

We celebrate today the Annunciation to Mary and the start of her “divine pregnancy.” We typically do this exactly nine months before December 25th, in order to place Christ’s conception nine months before his birth. This year, the Feast has been moved from March 25th to today because Holy Week’s schedule took precedent. Nonetheless, we […]

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. Whether our difficulties are health-related or not, we look for security and surety as a matter of habit. […]

5-6 de abril: Preparándonos para Celebrar la Misa Dominical

Creemos que Cristo ha Resucitado y vive para siempre. ¿Qué significa esa fe para nosotros? ¿Está Jesús tan vivo para nosotros de forma que podemos encontrarle personalmente en oración, escuchándole y hablándole como de amigo a amigo, de corazón a corazón? ¿Tocamos sus heridas en los hermanos heridos por la vida, en sus cuerpos o […]
