Welcome!
The image that we should always have of our parish is that of a family. We are the family of the Lord. As Jesus once gathered his early followers, he now gathers us around himself. We are one family with him. He gives us his life through baptism; he forgives our sins in the sacrament of penance; and, he nourishes us regularly through his word and with his very life in the Eucharist.
Every family thrives on love. We pray that our parish family lives always in the experience of love. To the extent that we accept love of the Lord for us and return this love, especially through loving care of others, we live as a family.
Jesus gives the perfect description of each parish with these words, “As the father has loved me, so I have loved you. Live on in my love.” (Jn: 15:9) May Mary, our mother and patroness, always guide us to the love of the Lord.
This website describes our efforts to make our parish a family. We know that you will benefit from these ministries. We are confident that you will share your talents with them as well.
Welcome to the family of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament…
– Reverend Robert J. Whelan, Pastor

The central Catholic act of worship is attending the Mass, or Divine Liturgy. The Mass is divided into two parts: the Liturgy of the Word, and the Liturgy of the Eucharist.
During the first part, the priest leads us in prayer and songs, praising God, thanking Him, and asking Him for forgiveness. We hear Scripture readings, the priest gives a talk, and then we all pronounce the core principles of our faith.
In the second part, the priest says the blessing, transforming bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ. We all say the "Our Father" prayer, and then receive communion. Finally, there is a closing prayer and final blessing.
