The Cathedral Filipino-American Ministry is inviting everyone to nine days of Simbang Gabi novena masses at the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament from December 16 through December 24.
This novena is a Filipino tradition in preparation for Christmas. Simbang Gabi supports our parish community through prayer, celebration, and charity. All masses will be at 6:00 am, except for December 17 and 24 when the masses will be celebrated at the regular 8:00 am Sunday mass.
All are invited to prepare for the birth of our Lord Jesus during Simbang Gabi this Advent season. Come learn about this holy celebration of these masses. All are welcome!
Food, drinks, and fellowship will follow each mass at Mercy Hall. If you are interested in sponsoring a mass, please contact cathedralfilam@gmail.com.
New Series starting December 6!
Fr. O’Reilly will take us on a journey through the Roman Missal in the next series!
The Roman missal is the big red book you see on the Altar, full of the the prayers, chants and instructions for the celebration of Mass (the Eucharist). Don't miss this opportunity to become more familiar with the wonderful prayers it contains and how it leads us through the Mass.
Everyone is invited to join in at 7:00 PM on Wednesdays via Zoom.
Mark your calendars and send an email to Donna at flamealive22@gmail.com for further information and the Zoom links.
It is a good habit to be in!

Holy Hour of Reparation
Friday, January 5, 2024
The First Friday of each month immediately following the
12:10 Mass in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel
Jesus implores us to stay, watch, and pray with Him, just as He did to His apostles: "My soul is sorrowful even unto death. Stay you here and watch with Me (Matthew 26:38)." Jesus told St. Margaret Mary to "make reparation for the ingratitude of men. Spend an hour in prayer to appease divine justice, to implore mercy for sinners, to honor Me, to console Me for My bitter suffering when abandoned by My apostles, when they did not watch one hour with me."
During this holy hour of reparation before the Blessed Sacrament, we will pray a Spiritual Communion, Acts of Reparation and Consecration to the Sacred Heart, and preparation for a Happy Death. Holy Hour of Reparation is a devotion much needed by our world today, amid its tragedies and sin.
Revival’s in the Air
AN EXCITING JOURNEY AHEAD
The National Eucharistic Revival will foster Eucharistic devotion at the parish level, strengthening our liturgical life through the faithful celebration of the Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, missions, resources, preaching, and organic movements of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ invites us to return to the source and summit of our faith in the celebration of the Eucharist. The National Eucharistic Revival is a movement to restore understanding and devotion to this great mystery here in the United States by helping us renew our worship of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.
Watch the video to learn more about the exciting journey ahead and how you can be a part of it!
