Happy first Friday of Lent! This is the fasting that I wish: releasing those bound unjustly; untying the thongs of the yoke; setting free the oppressed; breaking every yoke; sharing your bread with the hungry; sheltering the oppressed and the homeless; clothing the naked when you see them --- and not turning your back on your own! (Is. 58)

Fellow SJV Parishioners, The next SJV Community Meeting on Monday 2/11/13 at 7:00 pm in the O'Callaghan Center is a very important meeting. Renzo Zecchetto, our architect, will be presenting the proposed location for our new church structure and gathering area. The presentation will include his analysis of the SJV criteria gathered from the community visioning meetings and all of the considered locations. The SJV Rebuild Committee was deeply moved and profoundly surprised by his analysis and conclusions. It is in all of our best interest to have good attendance as the reasons for the chosen locations are just as important as the site itself. We hope you can be there. SJV Rebuild Committee
