- Saint Nicholasby Franciscan Media on December 6, 2021 at 5:00 am
The absence of “hard historical facts” is not necessarily an obstacle to the popularity of saints, as the devotion to Saint Nicholas shows. Both the Eastern and Western Churches honor him, and it is claimed that after the Blessed Virgin, he is the saint most pictured by Christian artists.

Beware of email scams - 7 day candles are available at the parish office before and after Mass and during office hours Mon-Fri from 9am-4pm. As you walk in the narthex, entrance to the parish office is on your left. Suggested offering of $5 per candle.
Lord,
May this candle be a light for you to enlighten me in my difficulties.
May it be a fire for you to burn out of me all pride, selfishness and impurity.
May it be a flame for you to bring warmth into my heart, towards my family, my neighbors and all those who meet me.
Through the prayers of Mary Virgin and Mother, I place in your care those I came to pray for, especially_____.
I cannot stay long with you in this church. In leaving this candle, I wish to give to you something of myself.
Help me to continue my prayer into everything I do this day. Amen. - SD Vocations Video

~When we pray we speak to God; but when we read, God speaks to us. St. Jerome - A gift of your securities, including stocks or mutual funds, is an easy way to make a gift. By making a gift of your appreciated securities, you can avoid paying capital gains tax that would otherwise be due if you sold these assets. Contributions are deductible for tax purposes. There are no transaction fees or other costs and the full value of the sold securities benefits the parish, school or other Catholic charity you select.
More importantly, the question you may want to consider is this: Have I been blessed with many gifts and am I inspired by Gospel teaching and my Catholic values that charitable giving is a profound and joy-inspiring expression of love and gratitude? How can I live out my Catholic values and put them into action for the greater good of the community? Your stock contribution will help you live out your Catholic values and benefit your parish or school at the same time.
For more information on making a gift please visit our diocesan website at SDCatholic.org - Download a booklet of Our Church Treasures to learn about the many treasures of our faith hidden in plain sight inside our beautiful church. We conduct church tours during our quarterly New Parishioners Welcome Reception. All are welcome!
