Current Announcements

Low Sunday/Whitsunday/Divine Mercy Sunday

The Sunday after Easter is traditionally known as Low Sunday or Whitsunday (Dominica in Albis). This is because at baptism, the neophytes were given a white robe and lit candle. The white garment symbolizes baptismal innocence and grace. Dressed in this white garment, the neophytes assisted at Mass and received their First Holy Communion. Traditionally, they would wear their baptismal garment the entire week and would assist at Holy Mass each day. Their presence was to be a reminder to all that as Christians they had risen with Christ to a new life on Easter. For the final confirmation of their baptismal vows, the station Church is St. Pancratius who, at the young age of fourteen, sealed his baptismal vows with his blood. 

Divine Mercy Sunday: a plenary indulgence is granted to those who take part in the prayers and devotions held in honor of Divine Mercy, or who, in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament exposed or in the tabernacle, recite one Our Father and the Creed, adding a devout prayer to the merciful Lord Jesus. 

The Chaplet of Divine Mercy will be prayer after the 7:15am Mass, before the 8:45am Mass, and after the 12:15pm and 4:30pm Masses.

After Mass on Holy Thursday, we will have the Blessed Sacrament reserved for Adoration until midnight in the parish center at St. Agnes. If you would like to adore our Lord, please sign up on the sign-up sheet in the entrance of the Church after Mass. All are welcome to stay and adore our Lord until midnight. You don't have to be signed up, but the purpose of the sign-up sheet is to ensure that at least someone will be there, and our Lord will not be left alone.

Passiontide Begins March 26th, 2023

They took up stones therefore to cast at Him: but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple. John 8:59, the last words of the Gospel of Passion Sunday

Today is the commencement of Passiontide, the final two weeks of Lent, when Our Lord in a very literal sense hides Himself from our view. From now until the Easter Vigil, all the statues and images in our Churches will be covered, with the crucifixes being revealed during the liturgy of Good Friday. The veiled statues are a somber reminder that Our Lord is withdrawing from us and will soon be totally removed from our sight. The medieval French bishop Durandus connects the veiling of the statues with the way that Christ veiled His divinity during His Passion. As the prophet Isaiah says, “as one from whom men hide their faces, He was despised, and we esteemed Him not” (53:3).

In Masses of the season, the Psalm "Iudica me" is not said at the prayers at the foot of the altar, and there is no Gloria Patri at the asperges, Introit, or Lavabo.  

Dom Gueranger: After having proposed the forty-days’ fast of Jesus in the Desert to the meditation of the faithful, during the first four weeks of Lent, the Holy Church gives the two weeks, which remain before Easter, to the commemoration of the Passion. She would not have her children come to the great day of the immolation of the Lamb, without their having prepared for it by compassionating with him in the sufferings He endured in their stead.
