Message from Fr. John Chrysostom Tibakunirwa, Parish Administrator

Dear people of God, we have the opportunity to reflect on the Love of God and fellow humans this Sunday. Our love for one another, asked of us by Christ, is an extension of God’s great love which, in fact, calls us into being, sustains us and brings us everlasting life. When we love we are carrying on God’s creative work. So, in a loving uncompromising way, we must invite Love, that is, God, into our lives.

Lay Ministry Opportunity

Save the Date - Sunday, May 19, 2024, 3:00 – 4:30 in the Church

We are expanding and enriching our lay ministries of lectors, eucharistic ministers and altar servers. These are vital roles at Holy Name, and we need all who have served in the past, are currently serving and most importantly wish to serve to save this date and attend this meeting.
It will be an opportunity to interact with one another and establish and practice a set of consistent and liturgically sound routines and practices so that we can all confidently and appropriately carry out these roles. What a beautiful way to engage or re-engage in parish life and to be part of the spiritual growth and enrichment of our parish.

Please consider this important work, save the date on your calendar, and tap a friend to join you.
