Transfiguration Parish

  We  are a Catholic community united by love, illuminated by the Transfiguration of our Lord Jesus Christ.  We gather as a People of God seeking unity through the Holy Spirit to Worship through the Sacred Liturgy, Prayer and Sacraments, and to proclaim the Christian message which promotes Justice, Reconciliation and Service through Evangelization, Faith Formation and Discipleship

Transfiguration Parish is committed to continual growth in the Catholic Faith through a lifelong union with Jesus Christ, and in service to others through the ministry of the Church. We spread the Good News of His love and promote His Word through evangelization, education, reflection, and daily witness. As faithful stewards we pledge to direct and develop the spiritual, human, financial, and material resources of the Church. We respond to His love with gratitude and prayer, with compassion-ate service, generous sharing, reconciliation and equality for all.

WELCOME

No matter what your present status in the Catholic Church; no matter what your current family and martial situation; no matter what your personal history, age, race, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, physical condition; no matter what your self-image; you are invited, welcome, accepted, loved, and respected here at Transfiguration Parish.
 

Transfiguration Parish will be Livestreaming the 4:00 pm Mass in Speigletown on Saturday.  The Livestream will be available on the Transfiguration Parish Facebook page and https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC65S8ALJ_rRdZ4en_MXDE7Q, so those who are not able to attend Mass in person will be able to join us from their homes in the celebration of Holy Eucharist.  Masses will be recorded, and links will be available on our Parish Website for viewing anytime.  The addition of Livestreaming will allow us to give praise and glory to God as a parish community, even though we are not together in one place.

O God, true shepherd of all the faithful, look with kindness on your servant Pope Benedict XVI, whom you set as head and shepherd of your Church.

We give you thanks for your grace at work in him as he has led us by word and example: in his teaching, in his prayer, and in his great love.

Grant him your strength in frailty, comfort in sorrow, and serenity amid the trials of this world; and guide your Church, built on the rock of Peter, with the power of your Spirit as we continue on the path that leads to you.

Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

“The sevret of happiness is to live moment by monent and to thank God for all the He, in His goodness, sends to us day after day.”

–  St. Gianna Molla
