Instead of the “First Friday” Mass on June 5, we will celebrate the First Friday Devotion on the Feast of the Sacred Heart on Friday, June 12 with a Holy Hour for our Ordinands and Mass.

• 6:00 PM – Exposition
• 6:00–6:50 PM – Confession
• 6:50 PM – Benediction
• 7:00 PM – Mass

The Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus – also the World Day of Prayer for the Sanctification of Priests – is celebrated on the Friday after the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. This suggests to us that the Eucharist (Corpus Christi) is none other than the Heart of Jesus himself, of the One who “takes care of us” with his “heart”.

Congratulations to the dozens of young people who have come close to Jesus and his Church through the Sacrament of Confirmation. Come Holy Spirit Come!

Saturday, June 6, Corpus Christi Procession

All parishioners and families are warmly invited to take part in this beautiful celebration of devotion and unity in Christ.

3:00 pm – Exposition
3:30 pm – Procession
4:00 pm – Vespers I for Solemnity
4:30 pm – Benediction

What a beautiful Mother’s Day to Crown our Heavenly Mother. Thank you to all the children who honored our Lady in such a reverent way. A special thank you to the parent volunteers and members of the Sodality of Our Lady for organizing the morning.

Congratulatutions to all of our students who received their First Holy Communion on Saturday, May 9th!

Join the Seton Shrine on Saturday, June 27th from 10am – 3pm for a dynamic day with renowned Catholic missionary and storyteller Meg Hunter-Kilmer as we explore how Scripture and the lives of the saints illuminate our own path to holiness today. Through powerful stories, deep theological insight, and Meg’s signature humor and authenticity, you’ll discover that sanctity isn’t distant or outdated — it’s fiercely relevant. 

Congratulations to Our Newly Baptized and Confirmed Catholics!

We rejoice to see the fruit of our lives of faith lived in their lives.
