About this Event

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the passing of our beloved Patron into eternal life. With deep appreciation to God our Father for Saint John Paul II's life, leadership, and witness during his 26 years of his pontificate, we invite all pilgrims to join us in honoring him with a votive Mass at 5:30pm followed by veneration of his first-class relic, accompanied with special hymns.

Refreshments to follow.

I have looked for you and you have come to me. Thank you!
