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 4: Labor Day / Día de los Trabajadores

Labor Day offers a special opportunity to reflect on how we can build a more just and fair economy. We are called to nothing less than promoting the welfare of working families through both charitable works and through advocacy for improved policies. Our aim, as Catholic people, is to promote family stability, especially for those […]

September 3: The Day of the Lord

Is it possible to place ourselves in the sandals of St. Peter? From his perspective (in Matthew 16, 21-27), the one who fed the multitudes, who calmed the water, who drove out evil spirits, and who broke down social barriers by healing the daughter of a Canaanite woman is now the one who will suffer […]

3 de septiembre: El Día del Señor

Jesús nos dirá muy claro en el Evangelio de la Misa del domingo (Mateo 16, 21-27), que si queremos ser sus discípulos, hemos de aceptar la voluntad de Dios, y cargar cada uno con su Cruz. Pero cargar con la Cruz no quiere decir ir a buscarla, sino cargar con firmeza las Cruces que la […]

El Evangelio de la Misa que vamos a celebrar el domingo que viene (Mateo 16, 21-27) se sitúa inmediatamente después del Evangelio del domingo pasado. Es un texto que puede parecer desconcertante: el Señor, que acaba de alabar a San Pedro, ahora le dice ni más ni menos: “Quítate de mi vista, Satanás.” San Pedro, […]

September 2-3: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

What a difference a week makes! After last weekend’s Gospel account, where St. Peter had confessed his faith that Jesus was the Messiah, the Son of God, this weekend we encounter Jesus explaining to the Apostles what His “Messianic Mission” (and their responsive discipleship) really meant. Before coming to Mass this weekend, it will be […]

September 1: World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation / Dia de Oración (Cuidado de la Creación de Dios)

Pope Francis has asked us to join with people of faith around the world in making today a Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. The Holy Father acknowledges that we live in a culture that values busy-ness and accomplishments. Following our Creator’s call, however, to “Be still and know what I am God” […]
