With this Sunday we come to our celebration of Christ the King. This celebration brings about the conclusion of our liturgical year. We now head into Advent where we prepare for the birth of Christ who is God made Flesh.
Our parish is always a busy place, but in Advent there will be a few extra activities that I would like you to be aware of. On December 2 we will celebrate the anniversary of the dedication of our parish church with Mass at 6pm, December 7 a parish Advent retreat will be held beginning at 9:30am, December 9 our parish will host the icon of Mary of Persecuted Christians with a prayer service at 6pm, December 10 our Advent penance service will be held at 7pm, December 12 Mass will be offered on the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe at 7pm, December 14 a Rorate Caeli Mass will be offered at 6:30am, and December 19 our school will hold a musical at 5:30pm.
Lastly, I want to give you advance notice that I am currently planning a pilgrimage to the Holy Land from October 5-14, 2020. More information on this pilgrimage will soon follow. There will be an informational meeting held January 14 at 6:30pm.
In Christ,
Fr. Dustin Collins
