ANNOUNCEMENTS

Mass Times for the Immaculate Conception

Monday, December 8, is a Holy Day of Obligation in honor of the Immaculate Conception. We will have Mass on December 8 at 6:30am, 8am, 12pm, and 6:30pm.

Flocknote Giving
We have some exciting news to share! You are now able to give to Blessed Sacrament through Flocknote! While we have used Flocknote primarily for communication in the past, we are now able to use it for secure online giving, parish registration, and more. If you are already set up on our Vanco platform, this is fine and will continue to work for the near future. More information will be coming in the new year about the transition to Flocknote as our giving platform. We do ask that all new parishioners or those wishing to set up a new donation take advantage of Flocknote Giving. Check out this new feature below!
