Nine days. Thousands of prayers. Join us in praying a Novena to St. Louis, King of France, our parish patron. Considered one of Europe’s most just and equitable rulers, his faith in God guided his reign. Every day he ate with the poor and went to Mass. 

The Novena prayer will be prayed after every Mass starting today, leading up to his feast day on Sunday, Aug. 25. 

Please note: The readings, music and prayers will differ from those for the 21^st Sunday in Ordinary Time. (See readings list below.*) Two receptions will be held following the 8 am and 10:30 am in the Parish Meeting Hall on Aug. 25.

Please join us in praying the Novena​ and read this weekend's bulletin to learn ​why St. Louis is regarded as "the ideal ​Christian ruler."

* Printed programs will be provided for Masses celebrated on Aug. 24 and 25. The readings and psalm are as follows (i.e., differing from those read in Ordinary Time):

1. Isaiah 58:6-11
2. Psalms 112:4-5, 6-7, 8a and 9
3. Galatians 2:19-20
4. Matthew 22:34-40
