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

25 de abril: San Marcos

Cada 25 de abril, la Iglesia Católica celebra la fiesta de San Marcos Evangelista, discípulo del Apóstol San Pedro, y autor del segundo Evangelio del Nuevo Testamento. Su obra fue un Evangelio escrito (principalmente) para los paganos (no-cristianos), probablemente en Roma, recogiendo la predicación de San Pedro. Aquellos paganos estaban fuera. Veían los ritos de […]

April 24 / 24 de abril: Pope Francis and the Journey to Emmaus

On the Third Sunday of Easter, Pope Francis recommended making an examination of conscience at the end of each day as a way to invite Jesus into the joys and struggles of daily life. “Indeed, for all of us it is important to reread our history together with Jesus: the story of our life, of […]

23 de abril: El Día del Señor

El tiempo Pascual nos recuerda (fuertemente) que el encuentro con Cristo Resucitado cambia la vida. El encuentro con Jesús Resucitado cambió la vida de aquellos dos discípulos de Emaús. (Lucas 24, 13-35) Se habían marchado de la comunidad. Caminaban tristes, con los ojos cerrados, y sin esperanza ni ilusión. Y ahora, después de reconocerle, por […]

April 23: The Day of the Lord

At the celebration of the Mass, we “recognize” Jesus (as did the two disciples “on the way”): in our shared journey which has brought us to Mass, in the Scripture readings, in the homily, and in our community prayers and songs. In […]

22-23 de abril: Preparándonos para Celebrar la Misa Dominical

El Evangelio del domingo (Lucas 24, 13-35) nos narra la conocida escena de los discípulos de Emaús. Estos dos, al igual que sus compañeros, habían depositados sus esperanzas en Jesús, pero su muerte ha caído sobre ellos como una losa. Su vida, sin Jesús, aparentemente ya no tiene sentido. El desaliento y la decepción los […]

April 22-23: Preparing to Celebrate Sunday’s Mass

One of the things many people love about the Emmaus story (Luke 24, 13-35) is the dramatic change in the feelings of Jesus’ disciples. The two on the road to Emmaus meet a stranger who walks and talks with them. Even before they realize it is Jesus, they change from feeling grief and disappointment to […]
