Cardinal DiNardo to celebrate Chrism Mass April 7
"While we are saddened by our continued inability to be present to one another in person, the prayer of the Church transcends space and time. Even as we may feel helpless or unable to act as human beings at times, we are reminded that the Holy Spirit cannot be bound."
IGNITE Capital Campaign
The continued growth and diversity of our Archdiocese has created needs that no single parish can address on its own. Join us in our capital campaign to IGNITE: Our Faith, Our Mission.
The campaign aims to assist in long-term funding of various areas of need in our Archdiocese.
