Event

What is Alpha? Alpha is a basic introduction to the Christian faith.  All guests are welcome for a great meal, great video and an open dialogue about life's big questions in a friendly, welcoming setting. It's no pressure, no cost, and you're more than welcome to just come check out the first few sessions to see if it's for you.  If you have never experienced Alpha - you are invited to come! If you have come to Alpha before, bring a friend! If you have more questions about Alpha, please contact Elizabeth elizabeth.sawv@gmail.com Ready to try Alpha? We start on Thursday, October 1  from 6:30 pm to 8:15 pm. Sign up in the foyer or contact the parish office.

The Rite for the Anointing of the Sick will be offered by Fr. Arsene after 9:00 am mass on Thursday, October 22, 2026. Please arrive at 9:45 AM if not attending the Mass. Please note that only those whose health is seriously impaired by sickness or old age are proper subjects for the sacrament. Please register with the Parish Office to request anointing for yourself or other Catholics you may wish to invite who meet the above criteria. Father Arsene should know the name of each person to be anointed.  The Anointing of the Sick will be followed by a light brunch in the parish hall hosted by the CWL.
