This phase will focus on understanding to unique history, gifts, communities, and ministries of each parish in our parish family. Everyone is encouraged to participate in these listening sessions, to share their reflections and insights as part of the planning process. Come be part of the conversation!

Memorial of St. Juan Diego Cuauhtlatoatzin | Tuesday, Dec. 9
Join us in prayer!
The Respect Life Ministry invites everyone to join for a prayer gathering in honor of St. Juan Diego Cuauhtlatoatzin, the first Catholic saint indigenous to the Americas. Juan and his wife were among the first to be baptized by Franciscan missionaries in Mexico in 1524. Visited by the Blessed Virgin Mary on the hill of Tepeyac, he received the miraculous image of the Virgin on his roughspun tilma, which is now enshrined in the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City. More than 20 million pilgrims visit the shrine each year. St. Juan Diego is the patron saint of indigenous peoples.
Gather with us in prayer around the statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe on the west side of the church grounds.
QA | 5:00 pm, Tuesday, Dec. 9 | Our Lady of Guadalupe in the garden
