Why belong here
Holy Family welcomes Catholics and visitors to its 11:00 AM Sunday Mass and its Friday morning Mass, with Confession offered both before Friday Mass and after Sunday Mass. The parish gathers each First Friday for an extended day of Eucharistic Adoration from 9:30 AM to 9:00 PM, drawing the faithful into quiet prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. As one of three parishes in the Holy Family / St. John the Evangelist / St. Mary Pastorate, the community offers the warmth of a small-town Catholic parish with the broader resources of a shared diocesan pastorate. Visitors are invited to celebrate Mass, receive the sacraments, and join the parish's ministries and events.
