Power packed week of the courageous Bishops St. Nicholas and St. Ambrose and the Marian Feast of the Immaculate Conception. (Holy Day of Obligation on Wed. Dec. 8th). Here is your weekly update on what is going on in the parish.
Monday, December. 6th
Feast of St. Nicholas
Protecting young girls from human trafficking and confronting (maybe even slapping? the jury is out) the heretic Arius are just two of the many dramatic moments of this great bishop's life in service of Our Lord Jesus. Saint Nicholas, pray for us!
Also the mentor to St. Augustine, this saintly and courageous bishop did not shy away from challenging even the emperor of the Catholic world for a grave abuse against the sanctity of human life. Read more about his amazing life here.
We have mass at 8:30 AM and 7:00 PM on this Holy Day of Obligation to celebrate God's care for His Mother Nary by keeping her free from even Original Sin.
We had a wonderful turnout last week. Join us every Thursday for quiet prayer before our Lord in the Holy Family Chapel from 6 PM - 8 PM. We begin and end with traditional hymns.

“The great majority of people will go on observing forms that cannot be explained; they will keep Christmas Day with Christmas gifts and Christmas benedictions; they will continue to do it; and some day suddenly wake up and discover why.” - G.K Chesterton
