Let us gather “with humble spirit and contrite heart” in the Holy Spirit and give thanks to the Father for all his many blessings, uniting our offering with Christ’s through the most sublime sacrament of the Eucharist.

Mass will be celebrated at 9am on Thanksgiving


Jesus said,

“Let the children come to Me and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” (Matthew 19:14)

Parents of our young children – Relax!

God put the wiggle in children; don’t feel you have to suppress it in God’s house.

Sit toward the front where it is easier for your little ones to see and hear what’s going on at the altar.

Sing the hymns, pray and voice the responses.

Children learn by copying you.

Quietly explain the Mass and actions of the priest, altar servers, choir, etc.

If you have to leave Mass with your child, feel free to do so, but please come back!  We have a closed circuit TV in the narthex meeting room where you can watch and listen.

Remember that the way we welcome children in church directly affects the way they respond to the Church, to God and to one another.  Let them know that they are at home in this house of worship.

We celebrate the presence of children as a gift to the church.  They are a reminder that our parish is growing.

Please welcome our children and give a smile and kind word of encouragement to their parents.
