We're looking for volunteers to run Children’s Liturgy of the Word at 10:00 AM at Holy Family, 8:30 AM at St. Peter, or 9:00 AM at Sacred Heart.

Thank you to everyone who has participated in Holy Family Catholic Community’s Advent Giving Tree!
If you have not done so already, please return your unwrapped gift along with the tag you selected to the church from which you selected your tag by Sunday, December 4th. With your help, hundreds of area children will have gifts this Christmas season.
As Advent begins, we at Holy Family Catholic Community would like to extend an invitation to all families to join us at Mass in-person.
All are welcome at Mass, from parishioners to those just visiting the parish! If you join us online for Mass, we of course love to see you on our livestream and appreciate that you choose to spend your Sundays with Holy Family. Watching on livestream is a great way to stay connected to the church if you are unable to attend or if you are traveling. However, if you are able, we ask that you take this opportunity to return to in-person Mass this weekend. Coming to church offers a feeling of community that one cannot get elsewhere, giving you the opportunity to enjoy the friendship of your church family and receive Holy Communion.
We hope that you will take us up on this offer and that we will see you at Mass! It is well worth it! To find our Mass Schedule, please visit hffdl.org/mass.
