Sunday's Mass - begins about 6 minutes in.

During this challenging time, churches may be closed, but we are still a Catholic community. Check back frequently for new resources to help live out your faith while keeping physically distant. |
We hope this page will help you keep the faith during this time of physical distancing.
We will post new content each Monday to help you learn, live and grow in faith during the week. Click on the button below.
On Saturday, the weekend readings, reflection and music will be posted. Reflect on the readings and prepare for the live-streamed or televised Mass. Click on the button below.
Masses will be live streamed on Sundays at 11am and on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 9am.
There are also resources and links to both feed your faith and keep you up to date on COVID 19.
We have also added some content on the lighter side. We also need to smile and be inspired.
Don't forget to keep the Sabbath. Make Sunday (or another day if it doesn't work for your family) as a day set apart. Trying to create routine in a constantly changing world is challenging. Set aside time for quiet, peace, faith, and if needed a nap! Put on some faith music. Read the scriptures (by yourself or with your family). Read Rediscover the Saints or another faith book. Watch a faith film. It's the Lord's Day, make it special.
