This Sunday is the last day for making your Family Harvest Offering - prior to our actual Oct 6th Harvest.

However, the Family Harvest Offering is still open for anyone after October 6.

Just let the office know when you would like to do your offering.

The Family Harvest Offering 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 .

Video Lessons for

the Heart & Mind

If you have a family member, friend, or loved one who is far from God, you're not alone. You're in good company—not the least of which is God the Father himself, who works so hard to unite us with himself. If someone you love has stopped going to Church, or isn't practicing the faith anymore, or hasn't yet said "yes" to Jesus to begin with, what is the best way to love them?

Today, Fr. Mike has 4 simple things you can do to keep loving them on their faith journey, through all of the ups and downs. They're not easy to do, but they're always right.

When Someone You Love Walks Away From God / Leaves the Church

The Story of St. Michael: Why you Need Him! Explaining the Faith with Fr. Chris Alar.

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.
