Memorial Update
The beauty of the matching vestments and altar cloth add to the reverence and prayerfulness of the Mass and remind us that Beauty is one of the attributes of God Himself. It is fitting that we show Him our love by making our worship beautiful, in imitation of Him.
To sponsor a vestment or another memorial, please visit our Renovations page. While there, view our beautiful Virtual Tour, hosted by Deacon John Riordan!
