We are a people who wait in joyful hope for the coming of our Savior Jesus Christ. Advent is a joyful time of preparation for the celebration of the birth of Jesus.
God loves us so much that he sent us his only Son, Jesus. During the Christmas season, we celebrate Jesus' birth and his becoming known to the world - his Epiphany.
We encourage you to take advantage of Lent as a wonderful time for spiritual renewal.
Holy means "set apart." Christians set apart an entire week - Holy Week - to recall the events surrounding the suffering, death, and Resurrection of Jesus.
Jesus Christ is Risen! Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus, the central feast of Christianity.
