MASS- Special Veterans' Mass

At the 8:00AM Mass, we will be dedicating this Mass for Veterans who have served our nation.

All veterans and spouses, and families of all religious affiliations are welcome to attend.  
The international Veteran's Chorus will be singing during and after the Mass.
The Mass will be followed by a breakfast sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, Saint Boniface Council.  Please join us as we honor our Veterans!

The Holy Eucharist, in which the faithful receive the Body and the Blood of Christ, is the ultimate sign of our sharing in the divine life of Christ as well as of our status as one Body of Christ.

Because the members of the Church are one Body in Christ, we partake of the one bread, the Body of Christ, in the Eucharist, "the fount and apex of the whole Christian Life" (Lumen Gentium 11).

Receiving Christ in the Eucharist has a number of beneficial effects in our lives.

• It builds up our relationship with Jesus by maintaining and increasing our intimate union with Christ.
• It strengthens our relationship with his Body, the Church.  It unites all the members of the Church together, making the entire Church stronger and more vital.
• Participating in the Eucharist brings forgiveness for our venial sins and strengthens us to resist serious sin.  

The Holy Spirit sends us forth from the Eucharist, committed to being Christ's presence in the world.
