A Holy Hour is not about "doing" something perfectly; it is about "being" with Someone who loves you. It is an hour consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, truly present in the Holy Eucharist. Whether you spend it reading, praying, or simply sitting in silence, the goal is the same: to be with Him.

We have begun the second half of the fiscal year (July 25-June 26). Thank you for your support of our parish's mission and ministries. In January, our average weekly collection was $21,307. You also generously donated to various important causes through our January special collections, totaling $9,323 or ($2,331) per week). This brings our weekly January total to $23,638. We budgeted our Sunday Offertory income (less special collections) for JUL-JAN (29 weeks x $25,000) at $750,000, and we received $732,163 (-$18,000).
