Preparing the Soil of Our Hearts

74th Anniversary of the Dedication of the Church

Churches are meant to be different and stand apart. Much like our own hearts are meant to be different and set apart for God.

Celebrating the Dedication of a Church

When a parish church is built, it is the recognition of the need we have to come together to worship God.

Preparing the Soil of Our Hearts

True freedom as children of God comes from trusting in the power of His Word, which is always true, life-giving, and effective, even in the midst of suffering and hardship. Like the fertile soil in the Gospel, we are called to cultivate our hearts through prayer, the Eucharist, and Scripture so that God's Word may take deep root and bear lasting fruit in our lives.

The Yoke of Christ

As Christ carried the burden of our sins, we now carry the burden of simply trusting in Him.

A Year of Preparation

The word parish comes from Greek and means a dwelling of sojourners. In the Catholic tradition, the church is where God's people gather on their journey of faith. As we prepare for our Jubilee Anniversary, we continue on this journey together.
