A Message from Fr. Walter

TWENTY-FOURTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

The question Jesus poses to his disciples in today’s Gospel he also poses to us:  Who do you say that I am? Every decision we make, every action we take proclaims who we believe Jesus is and what his Gospel means to us. Sometimes answering that question demands that we put aside our fears and self-importance to say to ourselves and our community, “You are the Christ whom God has sent to teach us his way of humble gratitude, joyful service, and just peace.” Our love for family and friends, our commitment to the highest moral standards, our willingness to take the first step toward reconciliation and forgiveness is our confession of faith in Jesus as the Love and Word of God incarnate.

Eucharistic Adoration

Every Wednesday, from 7AM-6PM 

O Come Let Us Adore Him!!

The Catechism quotes Pope John Paul II: "The Church and the world have a great need for Eucharistic worship. Jesus awaits us in this sacrament of love. Let us not refuse the time to go to meet him in adoration, in contemplation full of faith, and open to making amends for the serious offenses and crimes of the world. Let our adoration never cease." (CCC, 1380)

Consider signing up for an hour to pray

before the Blessed Sacrament. 

Adorers are always welcome to stop in and

spend time with our Lord.

Sunday Obligation

The obligation to attend Holy Mass on the Lord’s Day is a sacred one. Anyone who is frail or at risk due to advanced age or medical conditions is always excused from this obligation.

However, those who are healthy and not at great risk, the presumption of the faithful should be that, unless they are at an enhanced risk, sick, or caring for others who are at risk or sick, are obligated to attend Sunday Mass.
