Mission Statement
We, the people of St. Monica Catholic Church, are called through Baptism to celebrate the presence of Jesus Christ in Word and Sacrament. In becoming what we receive, we are sent in peace to glorify
the Lord by sharing our gifts in service to others and by inviting all into a deeper relationship with Christ. Inspired by our patroness, St. Monica, we pray that all may become children of heaven.

Dear Parishioners,
This Sunday’s readings remind us that as baptized persons of faith, we are to work on the virtue of humility. Humility reminds us that God is infinite in His love and goodness. All that we have comes from God. Work is a gift from God. When we offer our work to help another or to benefit the good of society, we give honor to God. God has also blessed us with our gifts and talents so that we might share them with one another. Here in our parish, the potential to use these gifts is great! Just think…if everyone who is already active in our parish would ask someone new to be active, what could be accomplished! So what are you waiting for? Please pray, ask someone to get involved in our parish, and keep after them! There are people just waiting to be asked by you, waiting to take their turn at getting involved in some way within our parish.
As we pause this Labor Day for some recreation and relaxation, let us not forget to thank God for our gifts, our strength, our intelligence and our maturity in using the gift of work in society and in the Church. Let us ask God to help us to return to Our Creator the gifts He has blessed us through our labor and our vocation. And please, encourage others to participate in the ongoing work within our parish.
I want to thank all who labor here in our parish giving of themselves for the good of all. Thank you for your hard work and for helping to evangelize. Fr. Wade Bass and I wish you a blessed and relaxing Labor Day.
In Christ,Fr. Guadagnoli
We are St. Monica! Thank you for your participation in the celebration of the feast of St. Monica.

Vigésimo segundo domingo del tiempo ordinario 1 de septiembre 2019
Del PastorEstimados feligreses,
Las lecturas de este domingo nos recuerdan que, como personas bautizadas de fe, debemos trabajar en la virtud de la humildad. La humildad nos recuerda que Dios es infinito en su amor y bondad. Todo lo que tenemos viene de Dios. El trabajo es un regalo de Dios. Cuando ofrecemos nuestro trabajo para ayudar a otro o beneficiar el bien de la sociedad, le damos honor a Dios. Dios también nos ha bendecido con nuestros dones y talentos para que podamos compartirlos unos con otros. ¡Aquí en nuestra parroquia, el potencial para usar estos regalos es grande! Solo piense ... si todos los que ya están activos en nuestra parroquia le piden a alguien nuevo que esté activo, ¡qué se puede lograr! ¿Entonces, Qué esperas? ¡Por favor oren, pidan a alguien que se involucre en nuestra parroquia y sigan detrás de ellos! Hay personas que esperan que les pregunten, que esperan su turno para involucrarse de alguna manera dentro de nuestra parroquia.
Mientras hacemos una pausa en este Día del Trabajo para hacer algo recreativo y relajarnos, no olvidemos agradecer a Dios por nuestros dones, nuestra fuerza, nuestra inteligencia y nuestra madurez al usar el don del trabajo en la sociedad y en la Iglesia. Pidamos a Dios que nos ayude a devolverle a Nuestro Creador los dones los que nos ha bendecido a través de nuestro trabajo y nuestra vocación. Y, por favor, anime a otros a participar en el trabajo continuo dentro de nuestra parroquia.
Quiero agradecer a todos los que trabajan aquí en nuestra parroquia dando de sí mismos por el bien de todos. Gracias por su arduo trabajo y por ayudar a evangelizar. Padre Wade Bass y yo les deseamos un bendito y relajado Día del Trabajo. En Cristo,Padre Guadagnoli
