Father Sengole will celebrate Mass on December 26th at 5PM at St. Mary in honor of the Feast of St. Stephen.

Please bring your figurines of Baby Jesus from your family cribs to Mass with you next weekend (December 17th-18th) to be blessed by Fr. Sengole. Children are invited to wrap the blessed figurines in Christmas wrapping when they return home and to place them under the tree to be opened as the first gift of Christmas; thus encouraging young children to make the connection between the gifts they receive on Christmas Day and the greatest gift that any of us can receive, Jesus; and the connection between the Nativity set at home and the local Church where they worship each weekend.

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish will present an Advent program of Lessons and Carols on Wednesday, December 14, 2022 at 7pm at St. Andrew Campus. According to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, “The Festival of Lessons and Carols is a service of Scripture and song that dates to the late 19th century. In this service, we listen to nine Scripture readings which recount the Fall, the promise of a Messiah, the Incarnation, and the Great Commission to preach the Good News. Each lesson is followed by a carol or other song that reflects on the lesson’s message and a brief prayer.
