During difficult times our faith tells us that we need to come together in prayer and pray to our Blessed Lord as one people. In accordance with that tradition, I would like to invite everyone to come and share in the Prayer of the Gospels with us online every Sunday evening at 8:00pm. We will also include the litany in response to abortion. This prayer can be accessed with the following link:
