Archbishop Vásquez’s Statement on the Death of His Holiness, Pope FrancisUnited with His Eminence, Daniel Cardinal DiNardo, Bishop Italo Dell’Oro, the priests, deacons, men and women religious, and lay faithful of the Archdiocese, I am deeply saddened at the death of His Holiness, Pope Francis, this morning in Rome.
Pope Francis's life and ministry centered on walking alongside the poor and marginalized, sharing the life-affirming message of the Gospel not only with them but also through them to the entire Church. His deep commitment to supporting all individuals in their happiness and struggles will leave a profound and enduring influence on the Church as it embarks on its continued pilgrimage of faith, hope, and charity.
As pilgrims of hope, we take solace during this Easter season in the Resurrection of Our Lord. Let us offer our prayers for His Holiness, Pope Francis, through the intercession of the Blessed Mother.
May the Lord embrace him in His merciful arms. May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
I also ask you to pray for Cardinal DiNardo, and the entire College of Cardinals, during this time.
Cardinal DiNardo’s Statement on the Death of His Holiness, Pope Francis
I, along with Archbishop Joe Vásquez, Bishop Italo Dell’Oro, the priests, deacons, men and women religious, and lay faithful express my profound sadness at the death of His Holiness, Pope Francis, this morning in Rome.The life and ministry of Pope Francis was marked by walking with the poor, and those on the margins of society, to bring the life-giving message of the Gospel to them, and through them, to the whole Church. His intense focus on accompanying all men and women of goodwill in their joys and sorrows will continue to have a lasting impact on the Church as she continues her own pilgrim journey of faith.As the Church comes together to mourn and pray for the soul of His Holiness, let us commend him to the loving embrace of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of the Redeemer, to whom he had such loving devotion.May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.I also ask prayers for myself.Archbishop Vásquez, Cardinal DiNardo and Bishop Dell'Oro to offer Mass for Pope FrancisThe Mass of Easter Monday will be offered for the repose of the soul of His Holiness, Pope Francis, by His Excellency, Joe S.

You can register yourself and your family by stopping by the parish office and picking up a registration form.
Also, you can download our registration form, print it, fill it out, and turn it in by dropping it off at the parish office.
Online registration has been suspended for a short time. Some submissions were getting lost and we're not sure what the problem is. We're working on it, and hopefully, it will be up again soon.
This is parish registration, NOT Family Faith Formation registration. Click here for FFF registration and information.
