      • Reserve a seat for weekend Mass Sign-Up

        Please review the available Mass Times below and click on the button to sign up. Thank you! SIGN-UP: You must sign up at least 1 day prior to Mass time. (Registration for Saturday Mass closes at 8:00 pm on Friday. Registration for Sunday Mass closes at 8:00 pm on Saturday.

      • Due to the fact we had to remove 75% of our seating due to comply with social distancing, we have limited seating in the church and therefore it is necessary to reservere a seat for the Masses. We do not want to have to turn anyone away at the door so this makes it easier to plan which Mass you will be able to attend. Face masks are required to be worn on the church campus at all times.
        Thank you for your understanding.

      • respect life action guide

        These Respect Life action guides* focus on providing parish resources that are easy to use, actionable, and ready-to-go. The materials are designed to complement existing parish life and manifest that the Gospel of life is part of the very fabric of the Gospel itself.

        Liturgical celebrations and other annual calendar occasions provide natural opportunities to help build a culture of life. The action guides are structured around five main calendar occasions to help leaders take advantage of opportunities to highlight and integrate Respect Life themes throughout the year: ​

        1. January 22: Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children and related events

        2. March 25: Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Lord

        3. April: Divine Mercy Sunday

        4. May: Mother’s Day

        5. October: Respect Life Month
