Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

During the month of September take time to learn more about the seven sorrows of Mary. Click here to read more and enter into the mind and heart of Mary. Our Sorrowful Mother can teach us much about the sanctity of suffering and be a source of consolation to all who suffer. The feast of Our Lady of Sorrows is September 15. Click here to learn more. Our Lord is more honored when we honor His Mother.

Help your family journey with the saints through the month of September. Each day you can learn how these virtuous examples found their way to heaven. Learn about September Saints Here.

Priesthood Sunday is September 25! Priesthood Sunday honors priests in the United States. It is a day to reflect upon and affirm the role of the priesthood in the life of the Church as a central one. On Priesthood Sunday we specifically honors priests, without whom the Mass could not be offered and Sacraments could not be celebrated.

Please let us know how we can better serve you and your parish as we carry out our mission of evangelization to help parishes bring people to an encounter with Christ and a deeper appreciation of the Catholic faith, igniting a joyful witness of their faith to others. (contact us at Family@diocesepb.org)

May God's Mercy and Peace be with you,

Cathy, Deacon Louie, Beth, Liliana, Andy, Erika, Cindy and Rosario
