Welcome to St. Aloysius Catholic Church

SUMMER OFFICE HOURS: The office hours during the months of June, July and August are from 8:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.

“Mass Moments”

 Order of Mass
The Order of Mass is the script we follow for every celebration of the Eucharist. It contains the words and movements that are repeated at every Mass, from the Sign of the Cross to the Dismissal. It does not include the readings nor any of the hymns. It is the part of the Mass that stays the same. 

The Order of Mass is located in the middle of The Roman Missal—the big red book that rests on the altar or in the hands of a server. The Order of Mass also appears in many books and pamphlets that people use to participate at Mass. Most Catholics know their lines very well, though sometimes they consult the Order of Mass for long texts, such as the Glory to God and the Creed. Visitors find the Order of Mass helpful to figure out what is happening when, what words to say, and what postures to adopt. 

In the year 2002, the Vatican issued a revised edition of The Roman Missal. Although the Order of Mass did not change very much, the publication of this volume in Latin prompted a new English translation of its contents.

Also, anyone in charge of an organization listed in the Directory is asked to review that information for accuracy and call or email Sandy Brielmaier (please see contact information below) to confirm it is correct or to make any changes. (Please give her a call or email her either way, even if everything is correct.)

SCAM Alert

ATTENTION PLEASE: Please disregard any emails from Fr. Walling that are not coming from rwalling@qphamilton.org. There are messages circulating about needing special prayers, money, etc. These are scams! Fr. Walling will NEVER email you asking you for money or gift cards.  The latest scam has somehow managed to pop into existing email conversation threads. The parish office does not need to be notified if you have received them. However, if you have fallen victim to these scams please file a report at Report a Scam | Ohio.gov | Official Website of the State of Ohio and with your local police department.  Unfortunately ministers, school principals, etc. are common targets for these scams because these are organizations that people like to make donations to.

OUTREACH MINISTRY COMMITTEE UPDATE

Update on LENTEN PROJECT

Generous donations from parishioners, fish fry “Split the Pot" revenue, remembrance gifts for Vic Ferneding, St. Joe Outreach, and supplemental funds from our Mission Outreach budget enabled the following significant donations.  For the Little Sisters of Mary Immaculate of Gulu, you enabled the purchase of a $12514 ultrasound machine, 400 mosquito nets for $1600, 100 MAMA Kits for $3000, and additional funds for medical needs. We also have donated $6000 to H.O.P.E.-Full Pastures to sponsor engagement of ten abused and neglected children in the animal assisted Christian-focused therapeutic programs designed for them and their families. $14539 was collected during our Lenten program and the remainder of the funds came from the Mission Outreach budget.  15% accrual of our church net income is focused as a parish tithe to address a variety of charitable needs throughout the year.  THANK YOU!!

We, the people of St. Aloysius Parish, are called together by God through our Roman Catholic faith to be an active, visible community where the faith flourishes and grows. As such, we acknowledge God's love, Jesus Christ's redemption, the power of the Holy Spirit, and our individual and collective membership in the body of Christ. It is the privilege, responsibility, and challenge of that membership to manifest God's unconditional love for all His creation. This effort to be Christ-like will be especially evident in our parish worship, evangelization, and service.
