Dear Parishioners, We have just moved the offices to the rectory. For a long time the offices were in the school. However, this arrangement needed to change because the Charter School is moving into the building soon. State law and Covid restrictions require that only school personnel may be in the building during normal school…
Dear Parishioners, I never envy the decisions the bishops in our country have to make. I would never want to be in their shoes and deal with the problems they have to deal with. So, I will never offer public criticism of what they do as long as they continue to hold and teach the…
Dear Parishioners, The bishop has issued new directives for the upcoming Holy Days. The Church is very concerned about the spread of the coronavirus and so we have to make the following changes to our normal liturgical activities. I am letting you all know ahead of time so that nothing will be a surprise. However,…

This includes: Christina Schuetz (who tirelessly coordinated everything) Bela, Tony & Maryanne Fiuza Mary…

Dear Parishioners, As Catholics, we ought to be concerned about how treatments for Covid-19 are developed because of our strong moral stance against the use of embryonic stem cells in research. Because these cells are harvested by killing living human beings, we would be benefiting from the use of elected abortion which is an intrinsic…
Dear Parishioners, I have made the Christmas schedule. It is pretty much the same as last year with the addition of a 2pm Vigil and that you need to register for some of the masses beforehand. The mass times are as follows: Christmas Eve 2 pm (Need to register online) 4 pm (Need to register…
Dear Parishioners, Today is the first day of Advent. It is a time where we remember what it is like to long for Christ and His presence. When Adam and Eve sinned, all of humanity waited for their Savior to come. They waited for thousands of years and even after God made covenants with human…
