The professor, Fr Odasso, was a gentle and effective teacher, and all of us were grateful for him (and for a large number of the other professors we had).Read More

The 25th of most months is a day of importance to me (and often to many others). Everyone knows the 25th of December, of course. And the 25th of April is my birthday. The 25th of March is the Solemnity of the Annunciation. January 25 is the Feast of the Conversion of St Paul (and the publication date in 1841 of John Henry Newman’s famous “Tract 90,” written while still an Anglican, to show that a catholic-leaning Anglican could still swear allegiance to the “39 Articles” of the Church of England (yes, he got into huge amounts of trouble for this one!).Read More

Everyone knows (or should know) the three “theological virtues”—Faith, Hope, and Love/Charity. They are highlighted by St Paul at the end of I Corinthians 13.

Welcome from the Pastor

We are a parish community striving to be faithful to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, to care for our brothers and sisters and to build up the Kingdom here on Cody Road. We believe in worship that enables our members to be active in the work of lived evangelization: a witness to the joy of the life we share in Christ, crying the Gospel with our lives. We are committed to outreach that validates our worship and shows God to be the power behind the action, all for His glory.
We are working to become a people who celebrate the “Culture of Life” by affirming the truth of the Good News and ALL aspects of life as truly good.
Does affirmation, commitment to life, worship that enables, and joy in Christ resonate with you? Come join us, and thank you for visiting our web-site!
-Fr. David J. Tokarz, Pastor
