A unique Sunday Mass experience for young families to cultivate gratitude by responding to grace. Uncover how gratitude for God’s gifts shifts from focusing on our problems to encountering joy through small acts of kindness and care. The Eucharistic Liturgy takes place through Zoom conferencing (not Livestream) to foster greater interaction and connection among participants. There will be opportunities to ask questions and explore helpful ways to celebrate the Advent Season as a family.  All are welcome, especially young families.

Because of the interactive nature of this Mass celebrated by Frs. David Romero SJ and Tri Dinh SJ, we will invite families to prepare ahead of time with a few guided materials.
