A Message from Fr. Walter

THIRTY-FIRST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME


In today’s Gospel a scribe asks Jesus, “Which is the first of all the commandments?” In his response Jesus tells him that love of God and love of neighbor comprise the essence of morality, explaining, “There is no other commandment greater than these.” Although our Christian faith can at times lead to complex conversations about ethics and the discernment of proper action, Jesus gives us a litmus test that all of our decisions must pass in order to be considered godly: they must have love at their heart. When all of our words and deeds are motivated by love of God and love of neighbor, we will truly be living as members of the kingdom of God.

Fr. Walt

Eucharistic Adoration

Every Wednesday, from 7AM-6PM

The Holy Name Society will be praying the Rosary and the Divine Mercy Chaplet from 5:30pm-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.
