Where Catholic Faith and Duty Unite: Serving those who Serve. https://www.milarch.org/

Our parish will be holding pilgrimage to St. Patrick's Seminary on September 10th at 1:00PM (to arrive at the Seminary by 2pm). We will meet here in front of the church. This is so that on can obtain a plenary indulgance during this Jubilee Year.

Visiting St. Patrick’s Seminary’s Main Chapel during the Jubilee Year of Hope is an indulgenced act. A plenary indulgence can be gained only once a day. In order to obtain one, the faithful must:

• Have the interior disposition of complete detachment from sin, even venial sin;
• Have sacramentally confessed their sins within one week of their visit;
• Receive the Holy Eucharist (it is certainly better to receive it while participating in Holy Mass, but for the indulgence only Holy Communion is required) within one week of their visit;
• Pray for the intentions of the Supreme Pontiff.

NOTICE: The September 10, 2025, 6pm Mass is cancelled at St. Francis of Assisi, due to the Jubilee Pilgrimage to St. Patrick's Seminary. 

We will have (in its place) a 3:15pm Mass @ St. Patrick's Seminary in the main chapel. Hope to see you all there.

English Classes with Fr. Leandro will begin on Thursday, September 11th from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM in the parish hall. You can register before class.

The class will go over the Liturgy of the Holy Mass, Sacred Scripture, and other items.

Please note, ALL Lectors & Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion are required to attend these courses (either in English or Spanish with Fr. Gerardo).
