During this difficult time, many of the faithful may be unable to attend Mass. To sanctify their day and to keep walking in the liturgical rhythm of the Church, Magnificat has made their online version temporarily available to everyone for free. Free temporary access is also available in Spanish here. It is our hope that everyone will take this opportunity to pray with Magnificat in union with the Church each Sunday and weekday.

We would like to say: THANK YOU! Many of you have continued your regularly giving and some have even gone beyond. We are grateful!
We are still operating and our staff is still working. Without collections taking place at Masses, donations have inevitably declined. We understand this is a difficult time for all, but we are hopeful. Our Parish is dependent upon the weekly offering and regular contributions from our parishioners. These gifts allow us to continue our ministry and the ability to maintain our staff. We would be very grateful for your continued financial support at this time.
Offerings may be mailed directly to the Parish, dropped in the mail slot near the Rectory door, or set up temporarily/permanently through online giving.
Please note: the Capital Campaign-Called to Renew has been suspended until further notice.
Thank you for your continued generosity!
