Prayers for the success of this effort are always most welcome! Please join us in our Novena to St. Joseph
Oh, St. Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of God, I place in you all my interest and desires. Oh, St. Joseph, do assist me by your powerful intercession, and obtain for me from your Divine Son, all spiritual blessings, through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. So, that, having engaged here below your heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers. Oh, St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms; I dare not approach while He reposes near your heart. Press Him in my name and kiss His fine head for me and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, Patron of Departing Souls — Pray for me.
It has been many years since a church this beautiful has been built from the ground up to be used exclusively for the offering of the Sacrifice of
Holy Mass and Sacraments in the Extraordinary Form (Tridentine Rite).
As completion nears for the venerable project, you may want to view its progress from start to present. Please watch the slideshow below
to see construction photos which include up to the present pictures.
Very soon you will be able to see photos of the Solemn Blessing and first Holy Mass which will take place on March 5, 2011.
