54 DAY NOVENA
to the Blessed Mother for the Presidential
Election and Peace in our Country.

The Novena will begin on August 15th, feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and will end on October 7th, the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. You are asked to pray the Rosary and the Litany of Mary each day for 54 days. This is a personal prayer, said on your own rather than in a group.

Dear Church,

For those who wish to spend time with our Lord outside of coming into the Church, we will once again be exposing the Blessed Sacrament in Our Lady of Providence Hall (facing the side parking lot) from 10:00 am until 5:00 pm.

Dear Church,

I would like to thank all of you for your incredible patience and support as we have attempted to navigate through the uncharted seas of the coronavirus pandemic all the while keeping both Archdiocesan and State directives. Read More in Pastor’s Notes »

It has come to our attention that someone is impersonating Fr. Mario in emails being sent to people asking for financial assistance. These did not come from Fr. Mario, please do not respond to these requests.

Dear Church,

I want to thank everyone for their patience over the last couple of weeks as we opened the Church for public attendance. As the Governor has allowed us to begin Step 2 of Phase 2, there will no longer be assigned seating at Mass beginning the weekend of June 27/28. However, registration either online or by phone is required to attend a specific Mass. If you leave a message on the voicemail, please be sure to leave your contact information as you are not registered unless you receive a confirmation call from the office. We ask for your continued support as we all must maintain the requirement for social distancing at this time.

+ Fr. Mario

Please pray for the sick and all those who have asked us to pray for them this week.

Several bits of information and resource links relating to the quarantine due to the COVID-19 outbreak can be found on our COVID-19 page. Any additional messages/links will be posted there.

Give us the grace... When the sacredness of life before birth is attacked, to stand up and proclaim that no one ever has the authority to destroy unborn life.

~ John Paul II

Abortion and racism are both symptoms of a fundamental human error. The error is thinking that when someone stands in the way of our wants, we can justify getting that person out of our lives. Abortion and racism stem from the same poisonous root, selfishness.
