Our worship and our community are enhanced by your presence. We miss you when you're not here. If you are unable to come to Mass due to infirmity and would like to receive Holy Communion, the Sacrament of the Sick, or the Sacrament of Reconciliation at your home, please contact Deacon Phil ([email protected]) at the Parish Office. |

Pope's monthly intention for August: For evangelization in the city.
Today’s cities are filled with contrasts. They are places of freedom and opportunity, as well as anonymity and loneliness for many who live in them. In the midst of the hustle and bustle of urban life, millions of people seek deeper meaning for their lives, often without finding it. This reality is especially concerning for those living on the margins and for those who feel invisible in the midst of the multitude. In his August prayer intention, Pope Leo invites us to pray for the evangelization of the city so that the Church might know how to reach out to everyone, offering comfort, community, and the joy of the Gospel in every corner of the city. |

The Bishop's Annual Appeal:
“A Future Full of Hope” is underway. Bishop Hennen invites us to reflect on how we are part of something greater than our individual parishes—a diocesan family working together to proclaim the Gospel and build up the Body of Christ. The Diocese of Baker supports us in living and sharing our faith through the work and resources of the Pastoral Ministry Offices. Please prayerfully consider supporting this year’s appeal: www.dioceseofbaker.org/bishops-annual-appeal |
