Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI passed away Dec. 31 at 9:34 a.m. in his residence at the Mater Ecclesiae Monastery in the Vatican Gardens. Pope Francis is scheduled to preside over the funeral Mass Jan. 5 in St. Peter's Square.

Thanks to our wonderful crew, the church building is decorated beautifully for our Christmas services! Come join us on Christmas Eve and Christmas to celebrate the birth of our Savior.

The Lights of Love Mass was beautiful last weekend. A very special “thank you” to everyone who contributed to this project. With your help and support this generous act of love has again been a great success.
