A beautiful, blessed way to start the New Year-- Mass to honor Mary, the Holy Mother of God. On this Holy Day of Obligation, please make plans to join us for the Vigil Mass on December 31 at 5:00 pm, or at 10:00 am Mass on January 1.
Today the Church celebrates the Feast of the Holy Family. The family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph provides a model for Christian family life and for domestic life, in general. Our family life becomes sanctified (holy) when we live the life of the Church within our homes.
With the celebration of the Fourth Sunday of Advent, we are just a few days away from Christmas. This brings us to reflect upon two times of transition: First, the end of Advent- the time of preparation for the birth of Jesus, and the Second, the beginning of the season of Christmas.
Our Annual Epiphany Fair will be held on January 5, 2020 following the 11 am Mass. This event is always a wonderful experience! Please follow the link for more details!
"Gaudete in Domino semper! Rejoice in the Lord always!" (Philippians 4:4) The liturgy for the Third Sunday of Advent focuses on rejoicing and calls this Sunday "Gaudete" (Rejoice) Sunday.
On this Second Sunday of Advent, our focus continues today to stay awake and alert, so no "earthly undertaking" would deter our journey to prepare to welcome Christ into our lives.
