Congratulations to our teens and adults who received the Sacrament of Confirmation last weekend from Bishop Wilkerson during two outdoor Masses in our new tents. May the Holy Spirit continue to guide them in their Catholic faith.
Congratulations to the SFX School Class of 2020 who graduated last week in a socially-distanced outdoor ceremony last week. We wish them the best in the next chapter of their education.

Dear Parishioners, As you know by this time, once again Church is closed for indoor Masses and liturgical services. The Parish Office too remains closed to guests, but it is available by phone. We pray and hope that things will change soon. In the meantime, we will do our best to help you to walk with Jesus. Starting Friday, Daily Masses will be livestreaming at 8:30 a.m. Weekend Mass will be posted on YouTube after 5 p.m. Saturday. Those who would like to receive the Holy Eucharist for the weekend, you are welcome to come to Church on Saturday between 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 9 a.m. until 10 a.m. Please come to the parking lot and stay in your car. One of the priests will bring communion to your car. Saturday, the Blessed Sacrament will be exposed outside the Chapel for adoration from 6:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. “Coffee with Jesus” will continue weekdays (available after at 6 a.m.) For Confession or sick visits please call to the office. A weekly YouTube presentation on the Sacraments will begin from the last Wednesday of July. Lastly, we are thinking of the possibility of having outdoor services. If there is any change or update, it will be posted immediately. Please stay healthy and connected with Jesus. Prayerful regards, Fr. Sebastian Vettickal
Please join us for "Coffee with Jesus" each weekday morning. Is it not wonderful to start the day with Jesus? We’re offering a program to help you to walk with Jesus. Fr. Sebastian will offer a short reflection on the Gospel reading of the day—Gospel reading, reflection and a prayer. When you’re having your morning coffee, join us on YouTube and pray with Fr. Sebastian. The Word of God brightens our ways and inspires us with hope. Ten minutes in the morning with Jesus will bless your day. Videos will be uploaded at 6 a.m. for you to watch at your leisure.
