“....then at harvest time
I will say to the harvesters,
'First collect the weeds
and tie them in bundles for burning;
but gather the wheat into my barn.’”
We invite you to come and visit our church.
For over a hundred years,
our beautiful church
building
has been an oasis of peace
amid the
bustle of our urban environment.
The
doors of our church are open ALL DAY
as
a symbol that ALL are welcomed
to enter and pray.
A
church however is just a building.
The real
church is the many people
and organizations
who make the parish community at
Holy Family & St. Thomas Aquinas
such a special place.
Please
visit our other pages
and discover the
many different facets of our parish.
GET TO KNOW ST. PAUL
On June 28th, 2008, Pope Benedict XVI officially opened the Pauline year to commemorate St. Paul’s Birth. During this year, the Pope has requested that we get to know St. Paul and learn about his writings and his spirit of Evangelization!
After his dramatic conversion to Christianity, St. Paul’s whole motivation in life was to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and announce to all nations the call to be God’s holy people.
Our world is known for lukewarm faith practice, and where the Christian religion is often seen as not having significant relevance for today, the Pauline Year is an occasion for each one of us to get in touch with our own commitment to Christ. Especially by way of St. Paul’s own passion for knowing the person of Jesus Christ and his great desire to announce the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the nations of the world.
