We echo Jesus’ personal invitation for you to be with Him in Eucharistic Adoration before the Blessed Sacrament.  For sometime, the parish has offered the opportunity for adoration on the First Friday of the month.  Now we are delighted to witness a heightened response of love for our Lord as parishioners are now committing themselves to at least one hour each Friday in Adoration.  Adoration is held after 8:00 AM Mass till 9:00 PM every Friday.  Help us ensure that each hour is covered, look for the sign up sheet or refer to the contact listed above and call to select an  hour.

When we fulfill the obligation to worship God at Mass each Sunday, we must admit that attending His Word once a week is just not enough!  Daily personal Bible study is essential and regular group Bible study is very satisfying.  Bible study groups meet in the parish office twice a week.

The purpose of the marriage prep program is to help couples discern the will of God in calling them to marriage.  Marriage is a sacrament, and is the direct result of an act of God sealing a couple and making them one until death.  Members of this ministry interview couples, go over focus tests with the engaged couple, and prepare a written  summary for priest marrying the couple.
