April 16, 2017On Easter Sunday morning, three Masses were celebrated at the North Church and one at the South Church. Parishioners were greeted in a beautiful setting, with the altar and sanctuary adorned by bountiful hydrangeas, Easter lilies and a variety of spring flowers. We welcomed back the ALLELUIA, renewed our baptismal promises and were sprinkled with baptismal water. These photos are from the 7:30 a.m. Mass at the North Church, with Fr. Patrick Burns presiding.
February 7-9, 2020
Jesus is truly present in the Blessed Sacrament and there are miracles to prove it. From February 7-9, San Salvador Council Knights of Columbus hosted the Vatican International Eucharistic Miracles Exhibit at St. Francis Borgia. Over 100 miracles were highlighted where Eucharistic hosts miraculously turned into visible flesh and blood. Hundreds of parishioners and others from the area came to see the display and were amazed and edified. (Note: extensive information, including links to individual displays, can be viewed online at http://therealpresence.org/eucharst/mir/engl_mir.htm.)
October 5, 2019As part of our 175th anniversary celebration, Deacon Scott Wiese (from St. Joseph Parish in Grafton) offered a blessing of pets and animals. This was held on Saturday morning, Oct. 5 on the plaza at the North Church. The sky was overcast but the rain stayed away– with the sun peaking out just after the blessing. The date was chosen because it was the weekend closest to the feast of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals. We thank Deacon Scott for offering this blessing for the special “members” of our families.
