Upcoming Events

A daily prayer intention is one way we can show our love and appreciation.

Our Vocations Awareness and Appreciation Committee invites us to pray for a priest or deacon each day.
The committee circulates a calendar each month with a list of clergy for whom we can pray.
Suggested prayers are included on the calendar.
We may also offer up:

• Mass
• Fasting
• Eucharistic Exposition
• Rosary
• Holy Hour
• Other Devotions
