The beautiful Feast of the Presentation of the Lord or “Candlemas” takes place 40 days after Christmas. For many centuries, it brought the Christmas Season to an end. (The Christmas Season now ends with the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, which this year was Jan. 11). Traditionally, Candlemas is also the day on which candles are blessed.
We’ll celebrate Candlemas this year with a special Mass and blessing of candles. Everyone present will be invited to take a blessed candle for their home. Hot Chocolate to follow Mass.

We are happy to provide this oasis of peace and quiet, in the presence of Our Lord Himself, in the Blessed Sacrament.

Everyone is welcome to this special Liturgy of healing, strength, and hope.
Who Should Attend? Those whose health is seriously impaired by sickness or old age. Those soon to have surgery which will include the use of general anesthesia. Elderly people who have become notably weakened, even though no serious illness is present. Seriously ill children who have sufficient use of reason to be strengthened by the sacrament.

Join us for a celebration of Married Couples! Couples will receive a special blessing from Father Marcello during the 9am Mass on Sunday, February 15.
Reception to follow. Everyone is Welcome!

Our 9am Sunday Mass focuses on helping our youngest parishioners develop a love for & understanding of Christ, His Word, & the Mass. Children ages 5-10 join friends in the Church Hall following the opening prayers. They work with a catechist to understand the readings at an age-appropriate level. This is a formal worship experience adapted to make it relevant to the lives and experiences of children. Children return to Mass for the Consecration.

A Message from our Bishop:
A Blessing and a Challenge
Our diocese is witnessing an extraordinary blessing—a remarkable surge in vocations. Over the past decade, our number of seminarians has more than doubled! After six priests ordained in 2023, we are thrilled to welcome 11 new seminarians this year, bringing our total to 33.
This blessing, however, comes with a challenge. Each seminarian’s education costs more than $60,000 per year, and we anticipate total formation costs will rise to $3 million per year within five years. Bishop Caggiano has announced a special campaign to fund these rising costs. Will you give to support our future priests?
