Welcome Home Sunday will be celebrated at all August 15/16 masses! If you have not yet invited someone to Mass, there is still time. Do not worry about having the perfect words. Simply extend an invitation and trust God to do the rest. As we have been reminded through our consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, every person is deeply loved by God. Let us welcome each person not as a stranger, but as a beloved son or daughter whom the Lord desires to draw closer to Himself.
