Welcome! We're glad you're here

April 2

On Holy Thursday, we commemorate Jesus’ Last Supper, where He instituted the Eucharist and the priesthood. We reflect on His self-giving love, participate in the Mass of the Lord’s Supper, and are called to serve others in His name.

April 3

On Good Friday we solemnly commemorate Jesus’ Passion and death on the Cross. The Church celebrates the Liturgy of the Passion, venerates the Cross, and meditates on Christ’s sacrifice, offering prayer and fasting, uniting our sufferings with His redeeming love.

April 4

At the Easter Vigil, the Church gathers in the darkness of night to celebrate the Resurrection of the Lord. Through the light of the new fire, the proclamation of salvation history, the blessing of baptismal water, and the Eucharist, we rejoice in Christ’s victory over sin and death and renew our baptismal faith.

Living Stations of the Cross

Take a moment to slow down and walk with Jesus this Good Friday at 4:30 PM during the Living Stations of the Cross, led by our Confirmation students. It will be a simple and meaningful time of prayer as we follow the Lord on His journey to Calvary.

As we reflect on His suffering and love, we place our own burdens, struggles, and hopes into His hands. Each station reminds us that we are not alone. Christ walks with us, strengthens us, and renews our hearts with hope. We look forward to praying with you.

We look forward to praying with you.

Archbishop’s Annual Appeal

Dear Parish Family, Thank you sincerely for the generosity you continue to show our parish and the wider Church. Your prayers, time, and financial support truly make a difference in many lives. The 2026 Archbishop’s Annual Appeal is a shared effort across our Archdiocese, helping fund ministries that serve the poor, form seminarians, educate children, and strengthen families. Jesus reminds us, “Blessed are the merciful.” Your generosity is a living sign of that mercy. Please prayerfully consider supporting this year’s Appeal. Thank you, and may God bless you always. - Fr. Suarez
