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.

What's Happening

June 6: The Sign of the Cross / La Señal de la Cruz

There are some Catholic gestures which we repeat so often that we risk making them “routine” and “mechanical.” The Sign of the Cross is one of these. On Sunday’s celebration of the Holy Trinity, Pope Francis offered some encouragement in this regard: “Each time that a Catholic makes the Sign of the Cross, it is […]

June 5: St. Boniface / San Bonifacio

Comenzamos a entender a Dios de un modo […]

June 3-4: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

As we prepare to gather this weekend to celebrate Trinity Sunday, let’s be honest, first and foremost, that the Holy Trinity is beyond the reach of time and the grasp of human reasoning. It is a Mystery of our faith. We can only fumble in the dark in search of glimmers of light. “Two is […]

3-4 de junio: Preparándonos para Celebrar la Misa Dominical

Terminado el tiempo Pascual, la Iglesia dedica el domingo siguiente a Pentecostés a celebrar el misterio de la Santísima Trinidad. Todas las Misas y toda nuestra oración (individual y como pueblo) son Trinitarias. No obstante, la Iglesia quiere destacar de manera especial este misterio por ser el centro y fundamento de la vida católica. Lamentablemente […]
