Dear Parishioners,
Thank you for your every kindness, especially your patient understanding for a failed streaming of Mass on Palm Sunday. Technical difficulties beyond our control. Our sincere apologies! We look forward to you joining us on Holy Thursday at 7:00 p.m.
In faith, hope and love in all circumstances,
Fr. Michael Gerlach
Dear Children of Saints Simon and Jude,
Every morning at 6:15 AM I begin my prayers. Today, once again I said my prayers for YOU! Now we will pray together, placing our hand on our heart: "Dear Jesus, come into my hear and stay with me always"!
Sincerely,
Fr. Mike Gerlach.

Bp. Barron's Lent Reflections
