Support Holy Spirit's Lunch Ministry

Holy Spirit’s Lunch Ministry offers an opportunity to feed those in our city that need our help. Starting back up in September, twice per month, families volunteer to make lunches distributed to those in need by John the 23rd or Amigos de Guadalupe. To learn how this works, click here.

To help cover the costs, we will have a second collection this weekend. Any amount is greatly appreciated! If you won’t be at mass this weekend, you can donate here and choose Second Offerings from the drop-down menu.

Support for Maui

We are all aware and have seen the devastating effects of the wildfires in Maui. One way we can help the victims is through our monetary support. An online giving fund has been established and is available on our website (click here to access, select "Second Offerings" and choose the sub-fund,“Disaster Relief for Maui.”) In addition, there will be a second collection on August 26-27.

Let us continue to pray for the people in Maui as well as the first responders and emergency personnel that they receive God’s strength and peace.

HUNGRY? An Evening of Prayer, Praise, Scripture, and Worship

Thursday, August 24, 7pm, Church

“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will eat with them, and they with me.” -Revelation 3:20

Come and join us for an Evening of Prayer, Praise, Scripture & Worship on the theme of HUNGRY? this Thursday, August 24 at 7pm in the Church.

We are blessed to have folks who give of their time and talent to this ministry, and we want to share our gifts as best we can with the Holy Spirit community. Our main speaker for this evening will be none other than fellow parishioner and dedicated music minister, Mr. Richard Plato. Richard brings to us a wealth of knowledge rooted in scripture; a message of hope, encouragement, love, healing; and above all, his presence alone is welcoming, inviting, compelling, and inspiring. Richard will help us weave through the elements of Prayer, Praise, Scripture, Worship, Testimony, and Music all packaged nicely and ready to share for all of us on this beautiful evening that you don’t want to miss!

Help us spread the word about our HUNGRY? event to your family and friends.

Will you accept our invitation to come, sit, and join us at the Table?

Come and be filled at the table of the Lord.

Come in fellowship with one another.

Come, leave your chains at the door, for they can’t hold you anymore.

Hold your head up high; this is the start of your new life.

Come and be transformed.

Tim Mascarinas, director of music
