Bishop Robert Barron's: Following the Call of Christ
Water Bubbling Up to Eternal Life
The woman at the well represents us in our disordered desires.
But Jesus loves all of us and wants to be united with us, even in our sinfulness.
In a sense, he wants to marry each one of us.

Coming Up:
Temporary Schedule for Masses
Masses will be phased in over time. For now, we will have the 9AM weekday Mass only--EXCEPT ON MONDAYS. The weekend Masses will be at 4:30PM Saturday, 8:00AM, 10:30AM on Sunday.
No Confessions on July 8th or 15th
Confessions - Wednesdays 5-5:30 PM and Saturdays 9:30-10 AM. There will not be confession prior to the weekday Masses because of the need to sanitize the church. Enter the church through the east door only. Markings on the west inside wall of the church (near the regularly used confessional) will indicate six-foot spacing from others. The door to the server sacristy will be left open. (Please don't close it.) Enter through that room into the main sacristy. Depart the same way. To maintain sanitization, please do not enter the pews. Depart through the east door.
