If school is cancelled for the day, the office, and all activities planned for that day and evening, are also cancelled. Weekday Masses: If the school opening is delayed or cancelled, relevant Masses will be cancelled (for example, if the school delays opening for two hours, the 7 am or 8:15 am Masses will be cancelled that day; if school is cancelled for a day, so are all of that day's Masses.) Sunday Masses: Sunday Masses will RARELY be cancelled. If there is need to cancel one or more Sunday Masses, the pastor alone will make the decision. NOTIFICATION OF DELAYED OPENINGS OR CANCELLATIONS: Any delay or cancellation will be announced through the parish website and Facebook page, an blast, and a recorded message on the parish telephone.

Prayers are written following specific guidelines with support from various publications, the coordinator, and most especially the Holy Spirit. This is an invisible, yet essential ministry. Writers tend to be those who enjoy prayer and scripture reflection, and are comfortable putting their thoughts in writing. This ministry is time-flexible and can be performed at home; ideally this would be on a 6-8 week rotation.

Su Epifanía ante los Reyes Magos (Mt 2, 1-12) Su Epifanía a San Juan Bautista en el Jordán Su Epifanía a sus discípulos y comienzo de Su vida pública con el milagro en Caná. La Epifanía que más celebramos en la Navidad es la primera. La fiesta de la Epifanía tiene su origen en la Iglesia de Oriente. Los Reyes Magos Mientras en Oriente la Epifanía es la fiesta de la Encarnación, en Occidente se celebra con esta fiesta la revelación de Jesús, la verdadera Epifanía. La celebración gira en torno a la adoración a la que fue sujeto el Niño Jesús por parte de los tres Reyes Magos (Mt ) como símbolo del reconocimiento del mundo pagano de que Cristo es el salvador de toda la humanidad. De acuerdo a la tradición de la Iglesia del siglo I, se relaciona a estos magos como hombres poderosos y sabios, posiblemente reyes de naciones al oriente del Mediterráneo, hombres que por su cultura y espiritualidad cultivaban su conocimiento de hombre y de la naturaleza esforzándose especialmente por mantener un contacto con Dios. Sabemos que son magos, que vinieron de Oriente y que como regalo trajeron incienso, oro y mirra; se nos dice que fueron tres reyes sabios: Melchor, Gaspar y Baltazar. Hasta el año de 474 AD sus restos estuvieron en Constantinopla, la capital cristiana más importante en Oriente; luego fueron trasladados a la catedral de Milán (Italia) y en 1164 fueron trasladados a la ciudad de Colonia (Alemania), donde permanecen hasta nuestros días.
