Lenten Recollection Series

 

Join us for a special Lenten Recollection Series presented by Fr. Choy Ramos at 7 pm every Monday during Lent, during Adoration. This series will be live-streamed.

*   Adoration Prayers and Songs

                                                General Theme: “Returning to the Heart: A Lenten Journey Before the Eucharistic Lord”

FIRST MONDAY OF LENT: March 2, 2026, 7 pm
Theme: “Where Are You?” – Standing Honestly Before God
Core idea: Lent begins not with fixing ourselves, but with allowing God to see us as we truly are.

SECOND MONDAY OF LENT: March 9, 2026, 7 pm
Theme: “Healing What Is Broken” – Letting Christ Touch Our Wounds
Core idea: We bring not our perfection, but our brokenness, before the Eucharistic Lord.

THIRD MONDAY OF LENT: March 16, 2026, 7 pm
Theme: “Not My Will, But Yours” – Learning to Surrender
Core idea: Healing leads to surrender; surrender leads to freedom.

FOURTH MONDAY OF LENT: March 30, 2026, 7 pm
Theme: “Behold Your Mother” – Abiding in Christ, Transformed and Being Sent Forth
Core idea: Eucharistic celebration and adoration are not an escape, but a transformation for mission.

8:00 AM Mass, school, and all activities cancelled for Tuesday, February 24, 2926

 

Due to the significant amount of snow that has accumulated on our property, school will be closed on Tuesday, February 24th, and 8:00 AM Mass, and all activities are cancelled. Current conditions require extensive clearing to ensure that our campus is safe for students and staff.

To expedite this process, we have engaged Farrah Landscaping to assist our maintenance team with snow removal and site preparation. Their work will allow us to thoroughly clear walkways, parking areas, and entrances so that we can safely reopen on Wednesday.

Archbishop Checchio gave us a Bishop’s Holiday before he left for New Orleans so consider Tuesday a gift! Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we prioritize the safety of our community. We look forward to welcoming our parishioners back to Mass and our students back to school on Wednesday.

Monday Mass, School, Adoration, and All Activities Cancelled for February 23, 2026 Inbox

 

Due to the dangerous, inclement weather, and continuous snowfall the 8:00 am Mass on Monday, Adoration, school, and all activities are cancelled. We have closed the campus until we are able to clear the parking lots and prepare for a safe return after the storm.

May the Lord keep you and your loved ones safe, and may He grant us peace and protection through this storm.

In Christ,

Fr. Tom
