Some seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up choking it. But some seed fell on rich soil, and produced fruit, a hundred and sixty or thirtyfold. -Mt 13:7-8

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN
St. Bernadette's capital campaign was a significant effort of both time and treasure. Thank you to all who contributed and for creating this legacy that will serve future generations of Catholics.The improvements made to our accessibility and liturgical needs will serve the St. Bernadette community for another 50 years. In the meantime, we ask that you prayerfully consider a donation to our or continuing your donation to our Facility Maintenance Fund, which has been established to support continuing campus maintenance and improvements, as well as the repayment of the bridge loan we received early in our capital campaign. (At present, the parish's maintenance budget requires us to defer recommended maintenance.)
We will celebrate St. Kateri on Sunday July 12th at the 12pm Mass. Her official Feast Day is July 14th, 2020.
Blessed Kateri, you are revered as the mystic of the American wilderness. Though orphaned at the age of four, and left with a scarred face and damaged eyesight from illness, you were esteemed among the Mohawk tribe. When you asked to be baptized a Christian you subjected yourself to abuse by your people and were forced to run away. You endured many trials but still flowered in prayer and holiness, dedicating yourself totally to Christ. I ask you to be my spiritual guide along my journey through life. Through your intercession, I pray that I may always be loyal to my faith in all things. Amen.

Mass Times: Saturday 4 pm, Sunday 8 am, 10 am and 12 pm.
Starting Saturday July 18,
weekly confession will resume.
