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

September 11: Doing Good / Haciendo el Bien

Cuando leemos los Evangelios, siempre es extraño cómo gente fiel, religiosa, y regularmente practicante, como los escribas y fariseos, eran un gran obstáculo para la misión de Jesús. Muchas veces, están disgustados y enojados porque Jesús, por ejemplo, cura a un hombre con una mano paralítica en el Día del Señor (Lucas 6, 6-11). Recordemos […]

September 10: The Day of the Lord

You may have noticed that, for several months, the Church has provided us with a second reading at the Sunday Masses from a singles source: the Letter of St. Paul to the Romans. The Letter was written by St. Paul while he was in Corinth about 57 CE. Obviously, it was addressed to the Christians […]

September 9-10: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

After spending several weeks with the Apostles and their call to leadership, St. Matthew now directs our attention to the whole Church. He begins by exposing us to God’s call concerning our spiritual responsibility and our individual accountability for others in our families, circles of friends, parishes, and communities. The Gospel tells us that this […]

September 8: The Nativity (Birth) of Mary

The Universal Church celebrates the birthday of the Virgin Mary today. St. Andrew of Crete wrote about this day back in the 8th century: “The present Feast forms a link between the Old and the New Testaments. It shows that Truth succeeds symbols and figures and that the New Covenant replaces the Old. Hence, all […]
