Saint Maximilian Kolbe

We welcome our Catechumens and Candidates fully into the Church this weekend. The Rites of Initiation that were postponed at Easter will be celebrated this weekend at the
5PM & 10AM Mass times. Please pray for these faithful and their families!

At this time we also offer our prayers of gratitude to Deacon Matt and his Team for their leadership and dedication to this 2019-20 class.
