Saint John of Capestrano, priest, of the Order of Friars Minor: he championed discipline of the Rule, and ministered throughout the greater part of Europe in order to strengthen faith and Catholic morals. He sustained the faithful people by the fervor of his preaching and prayers, and dedicated himself to defending the liberty of Christians. At length, he died at Újlak on the banks of the Danube in Hungary.

Saint John of Capestrano, pray for us!

Stay a little longer this Sunday. ☕🍩

Join us for coffee and donuts after Sunday Mass.

It is a simple way to slow down, greet familiar faces, meet someone new, and spend a little more time together as a parish family.

We would love to see you there. 🤍

Save this reminder. Like to help others see it. Share with someone you sit near at Mass.

Pope Leo XIV will not make his scheduled visit to Assisi on October 27 in order to “aid his recovery” following his recent thoracic surgery, according to the Holy See Press Office.

The Pope will instead send a message to express his closeness to the organizers and attendees of the “Unarmed and Disarming Peace” meeting, which marks the 40th anniversary of the World Day of Prayer for Peace convened in the Italian city by Pope St. John Paul II.

“To aid his recovery following the thoracic surgery he underwent on Tuesday of last week, Pope Leo XIV will be unable to attend the ‘Unarmed and Disarming Peace’ meeting in Assisi on October 27, as planned,” read the statement.

The Press Office assured everyone that the Holy Father remains convinced “that the ‘Spirit of Assisi’ dialogue and the search for words and gestures of peace are valuable resources in an age of conflict.”

At the same time, Dr. Luigi Carbone and Professor Stefano Margaritora said the Holy Father underwent a scheduled follow-up chest X-ray, which confirmed that his “postoperative recovery is progressing very well.”

“However, given the short time that has elapsed since the surgery, his doctors advised against the planned helicopter journey on October 27 as a precaution,” they noted in the statement released on Friday by the Holy See Press Office.

The announcement follows Pope Leo XIV’s surgery on October 13 which removed the lower lobe of his right lung.

The Pope’s doctors said on Wednesday that the surgery removed all of the malignant lung adenocarcinoma and that subsequent tests confirmed that “no further treatment is necessary.”

Pope Leo XIV’s doctors have confirmed that the tumor removed on October 13 was a lung adenocarcinoma and that the disease was localized.
