    • 40 Days' Journey:

      How is the Lord calling you to grow this Lent?

      The Lenten season is a time when Catholics of all ages are invited to ponder the life and death of Christ through prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Whether is be by reading Scripture each day, fasting from wordly pleasures or giving of one's time to those in need, let us spend these 40 days of Lent to configure our hearts to Christ and His Pascal Mystery.

    • Prayer
    • Fasting
    • Almsgiving
    • "Lent stimulates us to let the Word of God penetrate our life and in this way to know the fundamental truth: who we are, where we come from, where we must go, what path we must take in life."
      Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI

    • Ash Wednesday in Your Parish

      On January 12, 2021, the Catholic News Service reported, "The Vatican Congregation for Divine Worship and the Sacraments asked priests to take special anti-COVID-19 precautions this year when distributing ashes on Ash Wednesday, Feb. 17, including sprinkling ashes on the top of people's heads rather than using them to make a cross on people's foreheads."

      • “One God, for ever and ever” becomes “God, for ever and ever.”
        February 8
        - Office of Worship
        “One God, for ever and ever” becomes “God, for ever and ever.”
        Beginning Ash Wednesday, changes to the translation of the "doxology" or the ending of some prayers at the beginning and end of Mass and other Sacraments to better reflect original intent of the Latin text.
