Just for the Corpus Christi Kids!!! Fr. Patrick and Curtis Simpson have created a three-minute video about EACH of us being made in the image and likeness of God. Wow! Each of us is that special??? Click the button to see the video. · For several weeks we have seen and heard many media discussions about racism here in the US. Last weekend (June 6th and 7th) our Dcn Aaron Poyer gave us a Biblical and personal insight into the virus of racism. Click on the button below to hear that homily or go to our website to see a video of the Mass where the homily was given. [see three buttons down for a link to the Mass] · For safety reasons, please register by noon Saturday if you wish to attend a Corpus Christi Mass at 4pm Saturday or Sunday at 9am or noon. Please click on button below to register. · Special notice for this coming weekend!!! Our 9:00am Mass will be the Mass that is livestreamed this coming weekend. It will be saved immediately for further viewing later that morning … or later that day … or days later! The feast for next Sunday is The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, or as it is called “Corpus Christi”, the name of our beloved community. A parish tradition: To get into the Corpus Christi spirit some of us like to wear something red when we go to Mass on our parish feast day. To see recent previously recorded Masses just click on the button below. · How about attending a weekday Mass to help getting back closer and closer to the Lord? In addition to our usual Monday - Thursday 8:30am daily Masses, we also now have 12:15 pm Masses on Monday & Wednesday and 6pm Masses on Tuesday & Thursday. These are short masses (35 minutes max) but a great shot in the arm all the same, and no reservation needed. Please wear a mask.
· Bored with “Stay at home!” Need something to keep that mind active? Have you taken a look at Bible Trivia on our parish website? St. Therese has provided us some great questions and answers on the Gospel of St. John. Each week there are more questions and answers.· A real invitation to dig deeper and deeper into our faith as Christians and Catholics: FORMED.ORG.
