MASKS REQUIRED WHEN ATTENDING MASS With the current increase of COVID-19 cases, both the Sacramento County and Yolo County Public Health Officers have issued Health Orders requiring all individuals—regardless of vaccination status—to wear face coverings when indoors in workplaces and public settings in those counties. This order will go into effect immediately. Therefore, all parishioners must wear a mask while attending Mass in the church. We'll keep you posted as things change.

Join us for a retreat with our Blessed Mother in preparation for Advent 2021! This retreat is open to all parishioners beginning November 15th. There are different levels of participation, all leading to our consecration to Our Blessed Mother on the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception on December 8th. The basic participation is to read the book "33 Days to Morning Glory" by Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC; reading 2 to 3 pages each day and then saying the consecration as guided in the book. Full participation will be joining others on Monday evenings in the Parish Center for one hour to watch a video expanding on the readings from that week and participating in small group discussions and sharing with time for fellowship! "33 Days to Morning Glory" will bring us to Advent with our Blessed Mother as we await with her the coming of Jesus! The cost for the book is $15 and can be purchased through the parish beginning the weekend of October 23 & 24.
