  • MESSAGE FROM FR. LEANDRO 'Lines' DELA CRUZ 7/26
    The feast of Saint Charbel Maklouf, a monk, priest and hermit of the Syriac Maronite Church of Antioch, the first saint belonging to the Eastern Rite Church canonized by Paul VI in 1977 in the Latin Rite, happens to fall on the 7th day of our novena to Saint Ann. His devotion to Christ with undivided heart brings our attention to what intercessory prayers mean.

  • Fourth of July Message from Fr. Dela Cruz
    Happy 4th of July!!! This is the day America celebrates Independence Day, a day which affords us a great opportunity to consider the freedom we enjoy today. Many great men and women have given life and treasure to purchase for us our right to liberty.  We must be vigilant-guarding that freedom- or we might very well find ourselves lamenting for losing that right. Let us not take it for granted!

  • MESSAGE FROM FR. LEANDRO 'Lines' DELA CRUZ
    In this Sunday’s Gospel Jesus invites us to take up our crosses and follow Him. That message we have certainly felt and have taken on these days. Apart from the crosses given to us individually, we are also carrying these heavy crosses of the pandemic.

  • Father's Day Weekend Mass Schedule
    I'm writing to give you aheads up so that nobody gets surprised on the changes made on Mass times this Father's Day Weekend. After evaluation of our Eucharistic celebrations last weekend, our schedule of Masses is moved to 9:00am and 11:00am. The 9:00am Mass will remain LIVE-streamed (11:00am will not). Thus, those who are still uncomfortable celebrating the In-Church Sunday Mass or cannot be seated in church due to our limited seats, can join us at the In-Car Parking Lot Mass located on the right side of the solar panel shed/pathway facing the FDC entrance. Please do not forget to bring your devices.

    Fr. Lines Message/In-Person Mass
    I hope everyone continues to stay safe and healthy. As restrictions are being eased up little by little, thanks be to God, it is my assumption that health situations are also getting better and better. As I have announced last weekend, we were very happy excited to inform you that "In Church" public gathering are now allowed and we all look forward to coming back to church to celebrate the Sacraments especially the Eucharist. There are still some restrictions to be observed and strict guidelines to be followed but at least we would be able to not only receive the Body of Christ in communion but also personally and physically witness and participate in the celebration of the whole Mass. Praise the Lord.

  • Bishops' statement on killing of George Floyd
    We are broken-hearted, sickened and outraged to watch another video of an African American man being killed before our very eyes. What's more astounding is that this is happening within mere weeks of several other such occurrences. This is the latest wake-up call that needs to be answered by each of us in a spirit of determined conversion.
