Happy Easter! What a great Easter celebration we had in Church! There are so many people to thank for all that was done to make our Masses so beautiful.
The Deacons of the Archdiocese of St. Louis are sponsoring a Diaper Drive this weekend and next weekend. This is a great opportunity to help those who are less fortunate with this very basic need. Thanks for any help you can give!
I hope and pray that these days of Lent have been a time of blessing for you and your family. Let’s pray for each other as we make our way through Lent so that our Easter celebration will be rich and meaningful and give us hope in the midst of our everyday living.
I am going to step aside this week and share a letter from Msgr. Jack Costello, former Pastor of SFB who was well loved when he was here and could use your prayers!
Welcome to the First Sunday of Lent. My hope and prayer for each of us is that these days of Lent might be a time for some focused prayer, reflection, and charitable works.
We had a great celebration of Catholic Schools Week this past week! Ash Wednesday is on February 17th. We will have Mass here at 7:00 am, 12:00 noon and at 6:30 pm.
Happy Catholic Schools Week! We have a great week planned - full of activities to highlight the gift of our Catholic School where minds are educated, hearts are nurtured, and faith is strengthened.
Beginning next Sunday. We will celebrate Catholic Schools Week! How blessed we are with the Grade School. With over 299 students, a tremendous faculty and staff, a strong Principal, dedicated and committed parents, and an extremely supportive Parish Family, we couldn’t be more fortunate.
As we prepare for Inauguration Day in the United States, wherever we stand on the political spectrum, I encourage us to pray for our new President and Vice-President and for all elected officials. Let’s also pray and work for peace in our country and for an end to violence.
Thankfully, our school is back in session and things are going well. We are so blessed by our faculty, staff, and students who care for each other and make our school a great place.
This weekend as we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family, we get an opportunity to reflect on the early life of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph while we do our best to imitate the virtues by which they lived.
As we make our proximate preparations for Christmas, we know this one will be different from any other so far in our lifetime. But even a pandemic can’t take away the good news of Christmas!
As you make your plans for Christmas, please keep in mind the health and safety of yourselves and others. Our care for others during this time is another way we can put our faith into practice.
Welcome to the Second Sunday of Advent! You are welcome to join Fr. Tony and me tonight (and on every Sunday evening in Advent) on Facebook Live for Evening Prayer and an open forum to discuss our faith.
This weekend we welcome Archbishop Rozanski to St. Francis Borgia for his first visit to our parish and to our fine town of Washington! Welcome, also, to the Season of Advent!
