Please note that there will be no incense at the
4:30 pm and 7:30 am Masses this Sunday.
Sunday, November 23rd- Christ, King of the Universe
A plenary indulgence is granted to the faithful who on the solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, publicly recite the act of dedication of the human race to Christ the King (Iesu dulcissime, Redemptor);
Therefore, at the end of all the masses on Sunday, November 23rd we will recite together the dedication with the hope of gaining plenary indulgences for us or our beloved departed.
Most sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us humbly prostrate before you. We are yours, and yours we wish to be; but to be more surely united with you, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to your Most Sacred Heart. Many indeed have never known you; many, too, despising your precepts, have rejected you. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to your Sacred Heart. Be King, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken you, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned you; grant that they may quickly return to their Father’s house, lest they die of wretchedness and hunger. Be King of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and the unity of faith, so that soon there may be but one flock and one Shepherd. Grant, O Lord, to your Church assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give tranquility of order to all nations; make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: Praise to the divine Heart that wrought our salvation; to it be glory and honor for ever. Amen.
Please note that there will be only one morning Mass on Thanksgiving Day at
9:00 am and one morning Mass on Friday at 8:15 am. Please not that there will not be any confessions after the Thursday and Friday Masses. The Thanksgiving offertory collection will go to support the Parish Food Pantry.

9 am (29th).
The Parish Office will be closed Thursday the 27th and Friday the 28th but will re-open on Monday morning at 8:15 am.
