We have only 5 Sundays for our Family Harvest Offering- Sept 1, Sept 8, Sept 15, Sept 22, Sept 29

Our Thanksgiving Harvest is not a one day event.

In fact, this begins with the Family Harvest Offering during the 10am Mass.


All Sundays leading to our big event on October 6 are open for your Family Harvest Offering.


This is the time when a family or individual comes before the altar of God to thank the Lord for all His bountiful gifts and provisions. And the blessings do not end there. 

This is a great opportunity for evangelization for you to invite your family, friends and office colleagues to your family offering . 


Two families made their joyful Family Harvest Offering recently.


 Below, Ifeoma Ndibe , in celebration of of her 45th Birthday, offered her thanksgiving with her family.


Henie & Lenita Perillon, our Couple of the year for our 2024 Harvest, who celebrated their 18th year wedding anniversary, offered their thanksgiving with their family.

The Year of Parish Revival began on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, June 11, 2023 . As we have entered this season of grace, Bishop Cozzens has composed a beautiful prayer for the Revival and the Church. We pray in particular for our beloved St Antoninus Church....



Prayer for the Eucharistic Revival of the Church



Lord Jesus Christ, you give us your flesh and blood for the life of the world, and you desire that all people come to the Supper of the Sacrifice of the Lamb.


Renew in your Church the truth, beauty, and goodness contained in the Most Blessed Eucharist.


Jesus living in the Eucharist, come and live in me.


Jesus healing in the Eucharist, come and heal me.


Jesus sacrificing yourself in the Eucharist, come and suffer in me.


Jesus rising in the Eucharist, come and rise to new life in me.


Jesus loving in the Eucharist, come and love in me.


Lord Jesus Christ, through the paschal mystery of your death and resurrection made present in every Holy Mass, pour out your healing love on your Church and on our world.


Grant that as we lift you up during this time of Eucharistic Revival, your Holy Spirit may draw all people to join us at this Banquet of Life. You live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever.


Our Lady of Guadalupe, Mother of the Eucharist, Pray for us.
