Frequently Asked Questions

Where do my children go?

We welcome all children at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. If needed, a cry room is available for families with young children.

I’m not Catholic, is it okay for me to participate in communion?

The Eucharist is the most intimate expression of our faith. Catholics believe that the Host truly becomes the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ through the ministry of the priest acting in the person of Christ.

If you are not Catholic, we ask that you not receive Holy Communion. However, those not receiving the Body and Blood of Christ are welcome to come forward with their arms crossed over their chest to receive a blessing, or they may remain in their pew.

How can I contribute to the Church?

We gratefully accept donations by cash or check during the collection at Mass. You may also support the parish through online giving here.

If you would like your contributions to be recorded for tax purposes, please contact the parish office to receive contribution envelopes.
