Saint Pius X Catholic Parish, dedicated to renewing all things in Christ, is committed to evangelization through prayer, service, sacrificial giving, faith formation, and community.
HOLY WEEK Schedule

At Saint Pius X, we have worked to ensure we reach you, every day, in every way we can. Our plans for Holy Week are no different. The overall schedule for the week can be found by clicking HERE or the image below .

We will also send daily emails this week, along with social media posts, to keep you informed of what is planned each day to embrace and celebrate the most holy week of the year in the Church.

We are praying for you all.
HOLY WEEK Where to find us

While it is a gift to be able to communicate through a variety of media, it can also be confusing for all to find what they are looking for each day.

HOLY WEEK Virtual Retreat

Throughout Holy Week, our clergy and staff are offering a virtual retreat that will be available on the website, by Facebook post and through daily email like this one.

The retreat will follow several figures from the Gospel; and with each, will focus on their movement from isolation to connection with Christ. Right now, as we are all experiencing a physical isolation, we hope that this retreat might draw you into a deeper connection with Christ despite our inability to receive him in the sacraments.

Each day a different staff member will give a 5-7 minute video reflection and offer you personal reflection questions to help you move towards a deeper connection with Christ.

COVID PRAYER

The following prayer will replace the parish stewardship prayer at Mass until further notice.

Mother of Divine Love, we entrust to you our nation and world, our families and loved ones, that we may be spared the worst of this illness.

In this time of trial and testing, hear the cries of those who are vulnerable and fearful.

For those already afflicted, obtain the grace of healing and deliverance.

For those working to help the sick and bring an end to this crisis, obtain the strength to continue their work.

Shelter us under the mantle of your protection, conform us to the will of the Father, remind us always of the love of your Son, Jesus, and bring his peace to our land and to our hearts.

Amen.

Saint Rocco, protector against the plague and all contagious diseases, pray for us!

We don't know what financial challenges lie ahead for you, or for our parish. Despite the fact that we cannot gather together for Mass, Saint Pius X continues to embrace our mission  to renew all things in Christ  thanks to your ongoing generosity and commitment.
