As a celebration of the Epiphany, at all Masses on the weekend of January 3 & 4, we will bless the doors of our church & offer chalk for parishioners to take home to bless their own doors.  Having prayers or blessings on our doors is a tradition handed down from our Jewish ancestors; it is a way of praying for the protection of all who enter the home and a way to keep God at the forefront of our minds.  We invite you to take some chalk with you for Epiphany to bless your homes.

And send us your photos! We would love to fill our social media with images of parishioners blessing their homes for the New Year.

If you missed the musical moments at the Christmas Vigil – with the SMOS Music Ministry on December 24th at 10 PM Mass – well, you’re in luck!  Here are two video recordings of this wonderful celebration! Just the thing if you’ve got the post-holiday blues!!

As we enter the winter season, please do your part to keep yourself and one another healthy against the flu, winter colds, and Covid. Though the pandemic has waned, we must always be vigilant for the health of our community.  If you are ill, please stay home and take care of yourself. You may consider wearing a mask indoors if you are ill or immunocompromised. Wash your hands frequently or use hand sanitizer. Please use common sense and good judgment during these winter months!
