We are a Roman Catholic family centered in the Eucharist, rooted in our immigrant traditions since the 1800’s and devoted to our Blessed Mother. Humbly guided by the Holy Spirit, and with the warmth and hospitality that springs from a small community, we seek to share our faith in Jesus Christ through prayer, devotion, education, stewardship, and service to others.

This year of St. Joseph, marks the 150th anniversary of the proclamation of St. Joseph as Patron of the Universal Church. In his Apostolic Letter, “Patris Corde” (With a Father’s Heart), Pope Francis reflects on the role of father and St. Joseph. “With a Father’s Heart: that is how Joseph loved Jesus.” If you have the chance, I would encourage you to read the letter. I found it to be a great reflection, not just for fathers, but for everyone. I love the prayer that the Holy Father prays that he includes in footnote 10 of the letter. It seems so appropriate for our time:
(10) Every day, for over forty years, following Lauds I have recited a prayer to Saint Joseph taken from a nineteenth-century French prayer book of the Congregation of the Sisters of Jesus and Mary. It expresses devotion and trust, and even poses a certain challenge to Saint Joseph.
“Glorious Patriarch Saint Joseph,
whose power makes the impossible possible,
come to my aid in these times of anguish and difficulty.
Take under your protection the serious and troubling situations that I commend to you,
that they may have a happy outcome.
My beloved father, all my trust is in you.
Let it not be said that I invoked in vain,
and since you can do everything with Jesus and Mary,
show me that your goodness is as great as your power. Amen.”
Fr. John
Even though vaccines are being administered we still need to keep the environment in the church safe for all who attend. There have been no changes on how we conduct Mass and the cleaning protocols that have been in place since May. Mass times have not changed and we still need ministers for the Masses.
