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

May 13-14: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

This weekend’s Gospel reading for the Sixth Sunday of Easter (John 14, 15-21) continues the “farewell discourse” of Jesus, recorded by St. John and part of which we heard last weekend. The other Scripture readings and this Gospel, especially, are ideally situated in the Liturgical Year to anticipate the coming feasts of the Ascension and […]

13-14 de mayo: Preparándonos para Celebrar la Misa Dominical

El tiempo de Pascua, como es sabido, es un tiempo dedicado a contemplar y celebrar a Jesús vivo entre nosotros. Y es, a la vez, un tiempo dedicado a contemplar y celebrar aquel primer grupo de gente que se sintió atraída y tocada por Jesús, y se reunió en comunidad en su nombre, y emprendió […]

May 13 / 13 de mayo: Our Lady of Fatima

11-12 de mayo: Amigos del Señor

“Ámense como yo les he amado.” (Juan 15, 12-17) Estas palabras del Señor nos resultan un poco incómodas. Es relativamente fácil amar a Dios, aunque con frecuencia nos parece que Él está lejos; al menos pensamos que es fácil amarle. Pero se nos antoja muy difícil amar a todos y cada uno de nuestros hermanos […]

May 10: St. Damien of Molokai

Those who grow roses, especially here in the City of Roses, know how they need to be pruned in order to “blossom” at their best. What is true of roses is true of most plants: pruning brings on new life. In John 15, 1-8, Jesus mentions pruning. He suggests that in various ways God prunes […]
