Saint Nicholas and Saint William parish

This Sunday, September 27, is Priesthood Sunday. Here is a prayer written by the late John Cardinal O'Connor, entitled: A PRAYER FOR PRIESTS

The Administrative Committee established the Bishops' Task Force on Preserving Human Dignity in the Age of Artificial Intelligence, chaired by Most Rev. Oscar Cantú, Bishop of San Jose, which will promote policies and practices that protect human dignity, religious liberty, democratic institutions, workers, families, and vulnerable populations. More than a dozen bishops also went to Capitol Hill to urge meaningful safety guardrails on artificial intelligence and support for legislation protecting children online.

Thus far, 43 families have pledged $475,520 (22%) toward our parish goal of $2,200,000. $440,000 will fund our 2026 Parish ADA goal.
