Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time. We invite you to view the livestream from the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception today at 12 Noon. To view the livestream starting at 12 Noon today, click below.

Suspicious Emails. We have received calls and emails about fraudulent emails being received by people from a spam account using Archbishop Gregory’s or other priests’ names. Please note that the archbishop or priests of the Archdiocese will not communicate a need for assistance in this way. At this point we are unable to stop these emails as these are fraudulent email accounts. Please mark these emails as spam and phishing. Please be diligent in not responding to suspicious emails.
Sacrament of Confession. Confessions are held on Saturday afternoons from 4:00 PM to 4:45 PM in the Parish Hall. Please enter the front doors of the church on the Parish Hall side. An usher will direct you to the line for confessions. As you enter the church, please wear a face mask or facial covering, sanitize your hands, and maintain social distancing (six feet) while in the church and parish hall.

2020 St. Nicholas Bazaar. The bazaar will return this fall on Friday, October 16 & Saturday, October 17. We are looking for people to donate and make crafts, and possibly teach some crafting classes. We are starting to collect used books for the "Pages in the Past" booth. Start setting aside your gently used treasures for our "Treasure Trove" sale. We will begin collecting these treasures closer to the event. For more information, please contact Pat Farmer at buttonspaf@aol.com
