Two weeks have passed since we ended the sacred days of the Holy Triduum, yet their grace continues to unfold in our lives. The Church’s liturgy does not simply recall past events—it invites us into them. And in those days, we walked closely with the Lord through the mystery of His love. (Be sure to check out the additional photos from the Triduum included throughout this post.) On Holy Thursday, we encountered two powerful signs of Christ’s love: the washing of the feet and

There are few Sundays in the Church year as tender and hope-filled as Divine Mercy Sunday . Celebrated on the Second Sunday of Easter, this day reminds us that the Resurrection is not just an event of the past—it is a living reality, poured out for us in the form of God’s endless mercy. The message of Divine Mercy was entrusted to Saint Faustina Kowalska, who recorded in her diary the words of Jesus: “The greater the sinner, the greater the right he has to My mercy.” These wo

There is something uniquely powerful about the stillness of Holy Saturday night. After walking with the Lord through His Passion on Holy Thursday and Good Friday, the Church gathers in quiet anticipation. The silence is not empty—it is filled with hope. The Easter Vigil begins in darkness. A fire is kindled, and from it the Paschal Candle is lit, symbolizing Christ, the Light of the World. As the flame is passed from person to person, the darkened church slowly fills with lig

Fr. Richard Sutter’s parish mission centered on the profound connection between the Beatitudes and the Seven Last Words of Christ , drawing especially from the insights of the Venerable Fulton J. Sheen. He showed how each Beatitude finds its deepest meaning in Christ’s words from the Cross, revealing not just moral teachings, but an invitation into a living relationship with Jesus. A key example he emphasized was: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness”

Our parish community gathered this past Friday for a beautiful Lenten Soup Supper , generously hosted by our OCIA community . It was a joy to see so many parishioners come together during this sacred season to share a simple, meat-free meal, conversation, and fellowship. Lent invites us to slow down, pray, and grow closer to Christ—and evenings like this are a wonderful reminder that we walk this journey of faith together. We are especially grateful for our OCIA community who

Our recent Valentine’s Day Dance at Saint Paul Catholic Church was truly a beautiful celebration of love, faith, and community. With a great turnout from across the parish, the evening was filled with delicious food, joyful laughter, and plenty of fun on the dance floor. This special night was made possible by the generosity of so many parishioners who came together to help with planning, decorating, and setting up. It was a wonderful example of what it means to be a parish f

Dear Parishioners, As we celebrate the birth of Christ, we remember that God draws close to us in love—entering our world to heal, to save, and to gather us into His Church. Christmas reveals that Christ is our hope, our peace, and the One who leads us into new life. Rooted in His living Word and nourished by the Sacraments, our mission at St. Paul is to renew the faith and hope of our parish family through prayer, fellowship, sacrificial love, and service. This season is a b
