News - June 2016 RSS Feed

Everyday we see the evil of violence and I’m afraid that we are becoming numb to it.   We brush it off too easily and put the blame elsewhere instead of looking at the evil that lurks within men’s hearts.

Pray every day in some manner, whether it is a rosary, a holy hour, spiritual reading or something else. Prayer is a must because it is through prayer that we build the relationship with Jesus.

This weekend (June 18 & 19) is "Commitment Weekend" for our Revenue Enhancement Campaign. Envelopes are available at the entrance of the church or give the parish office a call and we can send you one. Thank you.
