Welcome
Welcome to Saint Catherine of Alexandria Parish
As part of the Catholic Church, our parish endeavors to be the Lord’s own house for all who seek comfort, encouragement, peace, guidance and love. Here all can worship together. Each person is unique, and we believe that our differences enrich the community.
For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ (1 Corinthians 12:12).
We welcome you as members of our community. We encourage all who are already a part of our parish to continue to walk together in the service of others. No matter where you are on this journey – whether you have just heard the Lord’s call for the first time or if you have been away for some time, or if you have a thirst of God and desire to know more about your faith – you are indeed welcome at Saint Catherine.
What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we looked upon and touched with our hands concerns the Word of life, for the life was made visible; we have seen it and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life that was with the Father and was made visible to us - what we have seen and heard we proclaim now to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; for our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We are writing this so that our joy may be complete (1 John 1:1-4).

Weekly Reflection
FROM THE DESK OF MSGR. FRANCISCO RIOS, PAROCHIAL VICAR.......
“This is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world”
For sure the term Lamb of God was a familiar term for the Israelites. It was a term related to the Passover, when they were freed from the slavery in Egypt. It was the blood of the lamb that saved them from death. Every year at the commemoration of the Passover they were supposed to eat a lamb and tell the story of that event. The youngest child would ask what is this? And the father would tell the story of the Passover.
So, when John pointed Jesus as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, they knew what he was talking about, (or they should have known).
We hear these words when we go to Mass. We answer “Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof but only say the word and my soul shall be healed”
I pray that when we say these words, we will recognize Jesus as our Lord and Savior and that we will receive Him with an open heart, repentant of our sins and sincere in wishing to be healed from our own brokenness.
This is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. -
