Mission Statement
The parish of the Shrine Church of St. Jude is a family of Christians created in the image of a loving God. He has given us Faith and gifts which we nurture through His Word and Eucharist. Sent forth by Christ, we strive to share Him with others in our daily lives and to spread His message of salvation to all.
We welcome all people seeking communion with us. we respond to Christ’s command to teach all people through instruction in the Catholic Faith in our religious education program and Catholic School. With Christ as our cornerstone, we attempt to minister to the body, mind, and spirit of our fellow human beings. We pray for God’s help and guidance, and that we may love each other as brothers and sisters in the Lord building up the Kingdom of God.
Welcome Message

Catholics who are new to our parish are respectfully requested to introduce themselves to one of the priests after Mass and register at the parish office during the week. “Active” parishioners are those who are registered, join us regularly for the celebration of the sacraments and use the weekly donation envelopes. Only in this way can the parish issue documents attesting to parish membership and Catholic practice. Kindly notify us if you change your address.

Mass: What to Expect
The central Catholic act of worship is attending the Mass, or Divine Liturgy. The Mass is divided into two parts: the Liturgy of the Word, and the Liturgy of the Eucharist.
During the first part, the priest leads us in prayer and songs, praising God, thanking Him, and asking Him for forgiveness. We hear Scripture readings, the priest gives a talk, and then we all pronounce the core principles of our faith.
In the second part, the priest says the blessing, transforming bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ. We all say the "Our Father" prayer, and then receive communion. Finally, there is a closing prayer and final blessing.
