Faith-sharing groups engage in prayer, mutual support for one another, continued learning through reflection on Scripture, and outreach to share the mission of Jesus with others. They welcome new members.
Monday Evening Through the Word Bible Study @ 7–8PM (on Zoom)
The “Through the Word” community meets on Zoom on the 1st and 4th Monday of each month, from 7PM to 8PM. Together, under study leader Dr. Joseph Terry, they explore themes rooted in Sacred Scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, with study themes changing every few month. Let’s gather around the Word of God to listen, reflect, and strengthen one another in faith. All are welcome to join! Zoom Meeting ID: 88429100717. Sessions are recorded and archived on YouTube for on-demand viewing. Periodic in-person gatherings will be announced to study participants.
Tuesday Evening Faith and Fellowship Group @ 7–8:30PM (in person)
These gatherings for reflection and conversation draw from works such as Fr. Richard Rohr’s spiritual insights, John O’Malley’s What Happened at Vatican II, and Herbert McCabe’s God, Christ and Us. Over several years, this group has built a warm and welcoming community—come and be part of it! Fellowship continues to 9:30PM.

Additional Prayerful Encounters
- Exposition and Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is an opportunity to silently adore Jesus Christ present in the Holy Eucharist. Exposition is held every Thursday, immediately following the 12:05PM Mass. From the Thursday after Ash Wednesday until the week before Thanksgiving, devotional hours extend into the evening, concluding at 7:30PM with Benediction. During the winter months (Thanksgiving to the start of Lent), we observe a brief period of Adoration and Benediction right after the 12:05PM Mass.
- The Rosary is one of the most beautiful prayers we have. It is recited daily, Monday through Friday, after 12:05PM Mass. A Living Rosary is prayed twice a year (May and October) in the church plaza. Watch our News & Events page for announcements and dates.
- Intercessory Prayer is part of the Pastoral Care ministry. Pastoral Care members pray with love and compassion for the requests they receive and will, if requested, visit with your loved ones and distribute Holy Communion.
