This weekend, I am very happy to announce that we will have two outdoor/car Masses on Sunday, May 24: a 10:00am Ordinary Form Mass and a 12:30pm Extraordinary Form Mass. We will also live-stream the Saturday Vigil 5:15pm Mass on May 23, for those who are not able to attend the Mass on May 24. This live-stream is available under the Upcoming Events column.

This weekend, we are celebrating the Solemnity of the Ascension of Our Lord. Our Bishop has published a wonderful reflection on this great feast. Please spend a few moments to read this beautiful meditation.

We also remember in our hearts and prayers all of those men and women who have fought for the freedom that we now enjoy this Memorial Day. Thank you to all of them and their families for their courageous service to our country. May God bless them as we lift them up in prayer this weekend.

AN ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

MY JESUS,

I believe that Thou art in the Blessed Sacrament. I love Thee above all things, and I long for Thee in my soul. Since I cannot now receive Thee Sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though Thou hast already come, I embrace Thee and unite myself entirely to Thee; never permit me to be separated from Thee.

St. Alphonsus Maria de' Ligouri

Our Bishop has invited all the faithful
to pray for our Blessed Mother's intercession
at this time of pandemic
