Preparing for the Feast of Saint Joseph | Preparándonos para la Fiesta de San José

🇺🇸 As we prepare for his feast, Saint Joseph reminds us that holiness often grows in silence, trust, and daily faithfulness. 🇲🇽 Mientas nos preparamos para su fiesta, San José nos recuerda que la santidad a menudo crece en el silencio, la confianza y la fidelidad diaria.

Lenten Church Environment

During Lent, we observe a simple, stark Church and Chapel environment without flowers. This reflects the penitential season as we journey with Christ through the desert, focusing on prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. The flowers will return at Easter, symbolizing Christ's resurrection.
