Community Thanksgiving Service

Many area churches are cooperating in an ecumenical Thanksgiving Service to be held this Tuesday evening at 7 p.m. at St. John’s United Church of Christ, 733 Central Ave. (Please use the Eagle St. Entrance). A free-will offering will be taken to benefit the Friendly Kitchen. This common prayer is a way of reaching out to our Christian neighbors. We encourage our parishioners to make an effort to attend.

We Celebrate Thanksgiving Day

Join us at mass this Thursday 7 a.m. & 10 a.m. as we pause to consider the goodness of God and the many gifts we have received from His hands. Bring your family to mass on this day. It is the ultimate expression of remembrance and gratitude. Please note that the Parish Office will be closed this Thanksgiving and Friday.
