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

July 12: Disciples and Apostles

There are two words which appear often in the New Testament of the Bible, but we often confuse them. They are, however, distinct words (or titles): disciples and apostles.

11 de julio: San Benito

Cada 11 de julio la Iglesia celebra a San Benito de Nursia, fundador del monacato occidental (vida monástico). También se le conoce como San Benito, Abad.

10 de julio: Sin Medida, Sin Condiciones

Por eso envió a su Hijo Jesús a darnos su vida, a reconciliarnos, a curarnos espiritualmente, y a fortalecernos con su gracia, especialmente en “la comida y la bebida de vida eterna” – la Eucaristía. Como vemos repetidamente en los Evangelios, […]

Isn’t it true that one of life’s greatest burdens is having burdens that are unnecessary? There are certainly times when we have a lot to do. And there are times when we have a lot of people or things demanding our attention and care. But some of the happiest people in the world are the […]
