Jesus is Coming.
This is a season of so many preparations and we invite you to join us anytime to remember why we are preparing. Jesus in the Word and Sacraments, Prince of All Peace, came, comes and is coming again. Please join us to meet Him in this holy season.
Peace to you,
Fr. Mike Ingold, Pastor & Fr. Josuva Arulanandu, Assoc. Priest
There is an overview of our season here and more details below.

Hope of Christmas Past, Present and Future
Advent is a season of preparation, but in the wisdom of the Church we prepare not just for Jesus’ coming at Christmas, but for His coming in the Eucharist and at the end of time. Pick up a copy of our Advent booklet in the parish gathering areas and follow along this season as we reflect on the ways Jesus comes to us.
Advent by Candlelight
Tuesday, December 12th, 2023 @ 6:00pm
The holy seasons by candlelight have become a community favorite. Join us at St. Francis Xavier for prayer, silence, adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, music and opportunities for the Sacrament of Confession.
Our hour of prayer will be followed by cocoa and cookies in the social hall.
