The St. J’s Annual Family Gathering Brunch will be held on Sunday, September 14, 2025, following the 9:00am Mass (from 10:00am to 12:00pm) at St. John’s Parish Hall (Townsend).
We hope you will join us!
This is a free event, but it would be a great help to us if you would kindly pick up a ticket after Mass (one ticket per person attending—and only if you’re quite sure you can make it!) beginning the weekend of August 23/24 to help us to get a head count so we can plan for food. Thank you for your help!
Also, if anyone in the collaborative would like to help with the brunch (and we could certainly use it!), please click here. We would be most grateful!

Fr. Maher (pastor) and Fr. Kwang (assistant) will often hear confessions during Sunday Mass (whoever is not saying that particular Mass, of course). If one of them is in the confessional, an announcement will be made just as Mass begins (or you can just take a look to see if anyone is there!).
