On December 2nd we began the Season of Advent, during which the Church gratefully recalls the first coming of Christ, born of the Virgin Mary, and looks forward to the Lord's second coming at the end of time. Advent is a time for spiritual growth: come to Mass during the week, pray the rosary, go to confession, and pray a little longer in the morning or the evening. There are helpful books in the church narthex that you are most welcome to take for spiritual reading during Advent. May this season be for us a time rich in the Lord's presence and love.Read More -

Each year we accept donations for our Families in Need Fund. This fund helps our parish assist people in our parish family who are hurting financially and need help during the Christmas Season and beyond. There is a lot of "quiet good" that goes on in our parish thanks to the kindness of parishioners. If you can contribute to this year's fund, please place a donation in an envelope marked "Families in Need"; you may place the envelope in the collection or see me in church. Thank you for helping some of the families in our parish this year.Read More -
