Do you understand the Mass? Why do we say what we say, or why we kneel or stand when we do? Do you know where the prayers came from, where they were first said and how they became part of the Mass? Fr. Leo Patalinghug shares this four-part Teaching Mass series with us. Watch it with your family and allow the Mass to come alive in your heart!

St. John the Evangelist 2026 Lenten booklet and schedule.

Every Mass begins with an opening prayer called the collect. It is called the collect because the priest is “collecting” the hearts and prayers of the whole congregation into prayer at that moment, with the invitation, “Let us pray.” The collect sets the tone for the entire Mass and gives us a focus for our prayer. These prayers, drawn from the heart of the Church in the Mass, will become the heart of our Lenten devotional this year. Click here to view the daily Lenten devotionals.

Remember your loved one(s) with a gift to our Easter Flower Memorials fund. Your offering will help to beautify our church on Easter Sunday and into the jubilant season of Easter, celebrating the resurrection of our Lord.

At the beginning of each Following Christ and Sharing Christ session, we provide time for fellowship over dessert. Help others grow in their relationship with Christ in a personal way by volunteering to provide a sweet treat for the participants. Either store-bought or homemade would be great. Or help with hospitality in serving our guests.
