Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meet for one hour in the Diener Room located across from our Bishop's Chapel Sanctuary in our main Friary building.

We welcome people of all ages who have not been baptized before to come and receive the Water of New Life during one of our Sunday Masses. We do so always within a liturgy to gain the consent of the people, and in the Trinitarian formula (In the Name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.) ‘Private baptisms’ are not the norm at this parish and require a special dispensation of the pastor based on a real need. If you have been baptized previously, as an infant or adult, in a recognized church that uses the same formula, we simply transfer your baptismal records, as there is no need to baptize again. PreJordan Classe is requested prior to the baptism taking place at our parish.

We routinely schedule Baptisms on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of every month, except during the Holy Season of Lent (and certain holy day or feast days). We also try to include these days in the rotation:

The Second Sunday in January, Feast of the Baptism of our Lord,
The Great Vigil of Easter,
The Sunday before our annual InGathering in September.
(These specific dates vary slightly, depending on when Advent and Lent fall, so please check the Master Parish Calendar below or email us.)

Pray the Rosary Sundays at 8:30am in our Main Sanctuary.

Pre-Jordan Program (Baptism Preparation)

Since parents are seen as their child's primary teachers, the Pre-Jordan Program seeks to offer parents both the support of the community and an opportunity for reassessing their own faith and responsibilities. After meeting with a priest and prior to their child's Baptism, parents are required to attend a brief Pre Jordan session which includes a review of the history and theology of the Sacrament of Baptism as well as the movement that will be needed on the Sunday of the actual Baptism. Godparents are also encouraged to attend.
These gatherings are held in the Sanctuary on the first Sunday of each month at 1:00pm and must be completed no later than the month before your requested baptismal date.

Baptisms are held on the Third Sunday of the month except in Advent and Lent.

AA General Service Meeting in the Diener Room the First Wednesday of every month; located directly across from the Bishop's Chapel in our main Friary Building.

Every Thursday the Blessed Sacrament is exposed for Adoration in the Sanctuary from 4:00pm until 7:00pm. Stop in freely through the handicap entrance and pray before our Lord! Understood simply, Eucharistic Adoration is adoring or honoring the Eucharistic Presence of Christ. In a deeper sense, it involves “the contemplation of the Mystery of Christ truly present before us”. During Eucharistic Adoration, we “watch and wait”, we remain “silent” in His Presence and open ourselves to His Graces which flow from the Eucharist … By worshiping the Eucharistic Jesus, we become what God wants us to be! Like a magnet, The Lord draws us to Himself and gently transforms us. Join us and sit with our Lord every Thursday.

Join us as we journey the Stations of the Cross but this year using our WE ARE ALL HOMELESS EXHIBIT as a background to deepen our journey! Every Thursday in Lent, beginning March 7th at 6:30pm!

Boy Scout PLC & Troop Leader's Meeting meets every third Tuesday in the Diener Room (Located across from Sanctuary)

Our Sacred Meal Dinner Group! A small, monthly gathering of folks over a warm meal that they cook together. We gather to share what we call a “sacred meal”, a worship service that takes place around an actual dinner table in the parish fellowship hall. The meal is patterned after those shared by Christians in the first few centuries of the church, which evolved into our current day “Holy Communion” celebrations with participants sharing the bread and the cup. Everyone is known by name (everyone gets a name tag) and folks there for the first time are invited to jump right in and chop vegetables, or set out silverware, or place settings. Join us to share a meal, tell your story and weave it into our story, work together, eat together, and uncover a new way to explore God and each other! This group meets monthly on the 3rd Wednesday in the Undercroft at 6:30pm. For more information visit our Master Calendar, or contact us!

The Secular Franciscan Order, also known as the Third Order of St. Francis, is an official Order within our Church, established by St. Francis of Assisi, early in the thirteenth century. Members do not live in community, but rather live their everyday lives in the world. However, members gather together in fraternity on a regular basis, and by profession, they promise to follow a Rule of charity and service to others. For more information, or to join, please email our pastor at Father.Jim@mySaintMiriam.org.
