SUPPORT OUR SEMINARIANS

Our seminarians have been in a quarantine 'bubble' at seminary since March of 2020, when not home on summer break. Their quarterly breaks were cancelled in order to keep them safe and healthy, so they were away from family, friends and their parish homes for an extended period of time.

Please consider supporting our seminarians through prayer, letters and cards of encouragement, care packages, or however you would like. They will appreciate it very much!

For an updated list of our current seminarians, please click here.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Church Sanitizers after the 4:00 Saturday Vigil Mass: Please stay behind to help our sacristan, Norberto, sanitize the church after the 4:00 pm Saturday Mass. We need at least three more volunteers.

Keepers of the Cross Volunteers Every Other Friday: Please lend a hand as we have only three volunteers (Helen, Shirley, and Dinah) who clean the entire church every other week. We need at least three more volunteers who can help out on a regular basis. The next cleaning date will be Friday, February 19, from 1:00 pm until finished.

USCCB LETTER - COVID VACCINE

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has issued a statement on the new COVID-19 vaccines. Do these new vaccines align or conflict with the Church’s teaching on life? Were they developed using aborted fetal cells? It’s a complicated issue but this statement provides guidance for the faithful.
