Join us this coming Sunday, June 7, for our Rite I Mass at 10:30 a.m., when we hear the Gospel story of Jesus calling Matthew the Tax Collector to become one of His disciples. Why might this have been controversial? And what can we learn from it?

Memorial Day Prayer

They served and fought and died,
So that we might be safe and free.
Grant them, O Lord, eternal peace,
And give them the victory.
And in these days of unrest,
Filled with grave uncertainty,
Let's not forget the price they paid
To keep our country free.
