Blessed with a visit from our seminarian, Jacob Baeten!
Jacob joyfully served at all the liturgies of Holy Week. It was a gift to have him back at his home parish as he continues his journey toward the priesthood.

While he was here, Jacob also sat down with Billings Catholic Radio for an episode of 'On the Spot', where he shared an update on life as a first-year seminarian. It’s a wonderful opportunity to hear about his experiences and how God is working in his life.
Please continue to keep Jacob in your prayers!

VENERATION ❤️‍🔥 ALL ARE WELCOME
Divine Mercy Sunday, Apr 12

“I desire that this image be venerated, first in your chapel, and then throughout the world.” (Diary 47).

The original Divine Mercy image, painted by Eugeniusz Kazimirowski in 1934 under Saint Faustina’s direct supervision in Vilnius, is venerated as a sacred vessel of grace. Jesus requested this specific image be publicly honored, promising salvation and protection for those who trust in it, specifically on Divine Mercy Sunday, by performing acts of mercy, and gazing on it in prayer.

Processing to the Altar of Repose

04/03/2026

The Altar of Repose is a specially decorated altar used on Holy Thursday to reserve the Blessed Sacrament following the Evening Mass of the Lord's Supper. It symbolizes the Garden of Gethsemane, inviting worshippers to keep watch and pray.

The drama of this night begins with the Mass of the Lord’s Supper at 7 PM, the altar is then stripped, and the Holy Eucharist is processed to the altar of repose. The Church is open for prayer and Confession until midnight.

Let us give thanks for the priceless gift of the priesthood, instituted on this holy night. Let us pray for our priest, Fr. Bart Stevens, may God strengthen his vocation, fill him with joy, and sustain his humble service. Gracious God, inspire many more to answer Your call!
