Feast of St. Blasé

 

Legend tells us that St. Blasé cured a young boy choking on a fish bone, so we ask St. Blasé’s intercession for healing or keeping us free from any illness or injury to our throats. On Friday, February 1, Deacon Jesse Casarez will bless  throat after noon Mass. The Feast of St. Blasé is normally celebrated on February 3. Since it falls on a Sunday this year, the Fourth Sunday of Ordinary Time takes precedence. February 1 is the First Friday of the month, so Anointing of the Sick will also be available after Mass. If you plan to come to noon Mass, join us at 11:45 AM for the Devotions to the Sacred Heart.
