Lent 2023
Adoration Before Weekend Masses
The Blessed Sacrament will be in the church for Adoration 30 minutes before weekend Masses throughout Lent. In reverence to the Real Presence of Jesus, please enter the church in silence. As a form of respect, you should always genuflect when you see the Lord in the Host. Please maintain an attitude of respect, and if others are present, silence.

Best Lent Ever
Every time you collaborate with God to create a Holy Moment…the real you emerges. Most people live and die without even scratching the surface of their potential. Don’t let that be your story! Let Holy Moments reveal what the real you can do. You may not have had a name for it at the time, but any moment in your life where you chose to be kind, generous, selfless, patient, or express any other form of goodness…that was a Holy Moment. And you experienced the real you. You are more than the worst thing that has ever happened to you. You are more than the worst thing you have ever done. You are more than your greatest accomplishments and talents too. The real you is revealed every time you collaborate with God to create a Holy Moment. And the real you is amazing. He knows God deeply. She loves her family patiently. The real you fills the world with undeniable goodness. You’ve caught glimpses of that person before.
