This time of year, we would be in the midst of collecting funds for Christmas Baskets and getting gifts for children on the Angel Tree. Because of the pandemic, we cannot do either this year, so we wanted to offer two great opportunities to fulfill our parish mission in the Advent season by still making Jesus known in the local community with acts of compassion! Click the title to learn how. Help us fulfill our mission of making Jesus known in the local community with this act of compassion in the Advent season!Read More

Archbishop Wester has directed that Churches cease regular Mass schedules after October 25. The obligation to attend Mass on Sunday continues to be dispensed for all and the faithful are reminded that HOME IS THE HOLY PLACE. Keep holy the Lord’s Day by your prayer at home. Sunday Mass will be live streamed on Saturday afternoon at 4:00 pm beginning November 7th. The recorded Mass may be viewed on Sundays from your computer or mobile device. Communion will be distributed in the Gathering Space for a half hour following the Saturday afternoon Mass and the Sunday 10am Mass; and for 10 minutes following each daily Mass. Enter the church by the far, right door and exit by the opposite door. Confessions will be heard on Saturdays with the same protocols that have been in place.

The Veil Removed - A Short Film
The Veil Removed is a short film about what happens at the Mass. We posted it earlier this year to explain to those who aren't aware of just what happens at a Mass and why it is so important to Catholics that we attend Mass and give God, the Father, proper worship.

Archdiocese Prayer for Healing
Loving and Merciful God,
look upon us with compassion
as we cry out to You in our time of contrition.Your Church is brought low
by the sins committed against our innocent children
in whose eyes we see the image of Your crucified Son.
Just as Jesus gathered the children into His loving arms,
so gather us now into Your healing embrace,
especially those who have been crushed
by the scourge of abuse.Fashion us, Your sons and daughters,
into instruments of Your healing presence
so that Your humble Church may itself be healed
as we seek to comfort all who have been devastated
by the actions of those who betrayed our trust.
You, who know all mysteries
and whose wisdom is beyond compare,
guide us through these turbulent days.
Assist us in our efforts to bring justice
to those who have been offended,
give us the grace to restore our suffering communion
and imbue us with new life
in our efforts to heal and to protect,
especially those who are most vulnerable.
We ask this through our Lord, Jesus Christ,
who is with us now and forever. Amen. -
