Service at God’s Altar is a special way to participate in the life of the parish. It fosters a deeper relationship with God and the community of faith and can make the Mass come alive for the server. Father Zelonis would like to train boys and girls who have made their First Holy Communion and older.
Contact the Rectory to learn more about this ministry.
EUCHARISTIC ADORATION
Every Thursday
Noon to 9:00 PM
"Spending time in Adoration draws us into intimacy with Jesus. And as we get closer to him, he gives us the wisdom and strength to serve his Church and the people he has placed in our lives. Take a good look at your routine and find a way to include Adoration in your life."
- Susan Tassone

My Jesus,
I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
We should pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory all year. Here are prayers you can pray for them.
