The Solemnity Of The Most Holy Trinity

June 15th and 16th 2019

Mass Time Changes Start Saturday, June 29th

As you are aware, St. Joseph the Worker and Sacred Heart parishes will soon be sharing Fr. Alfredo Monacelli. In an effort to make the best use of Fr. Alfredo’s time the new Mass times are:

St. Joseph the Worker Saturday Mass: 6:00 pm

Sunday morning Mass: 11:00 amSunday evening Mass: 6:00 pm

Weekday Masses Wednesday & Friday: 9:00 am (no Monday, Tuesday and Thursday)

Reconciliation: ½ hr before evening Masses on Saturday and Sunday

Sacred Heart ParishSaturday: 4:00 pmSunday: 9:00 am

Weekday Masses Tuesday & Thursday: 9:00 am (no Monday, Wednesday and Friday)

Reconciliation: Saturday: 3:00 pm

God created us in his image, dwelt among us and remains with us in truth and as our strength and guidance. Everything God does, he does for us. May we strive to live in relationship with one another as our Triune God does with us.

Our first reading is a poetic reflection on the wisdom of God being present in all that God does. Saint Paul tells the Romans that they have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. In the Gospel, Jesus tells his disciples that they will come to understand his teachings more fully when they are filled with the Holy Spirit.
