BICENTENNIAL PRAYER OF THE DIOCESE OF RICHMOND
(1820–2020)
Father of lights, the radiance of your Son has guided the advance of the Gospel across the Diocese of Richmond for two centuries, strengthening our Church from the Eastern Shore to the Cumberland Gap. Grant that the nearness of your Son may dispel the darkness of our sins, so that as our love increases more and more, we may dare, more than ever to fearlessly proclaim the word. Holding fast to the word of life, may we shine like stars in the world.We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen
Ignorance of Scripture is Ignorance of Christ.

Mass Seating Reservations
- Details
- Hits: 431
PR-REGISTRATION NO LONGER NECESSARY
Seating is now officially on a first-come first-serve basis. Contact tracing is no longer required for regular Liturgies. Instead, should exposure to Covid-19 occur we would post a message on the website, Facebook page, and send out an email.
Governor Northam issued Executive Order 68 which imposes additional restrictions on the eastern region of the Commonwealth of Virginia due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This does NOT impact religious services. Mass will proceed as usual with our now familiar focus on safety.
Self-seating is still unavailable, so please arrive 5 to 10 minutes early to allow time to be seated by an Usher.
Should capacity be reached, overflow will be seated in the Fellowship Hall.

Ideally we are looking for those not in vulnerable categories. Volunteers must be at least 13 years of age, and minors will require parental approval.

Jesus Calms Our Waters In our lives, there are moments, when only Jesus can stop our torments. Those daily struggles that burden the soul, He comes to us and makes us whole. Oh Jesus, calm the winds of fear we hide. Smooth the waves of greed and pride.Calm our storms of anger and hate. Calm the storms that dim our sight, that block the path to your wonderful light. Calm the storms that lead us to sin. Give us courage, peace and love within. Let us be a witness to those we meet, the rich, the poor, the stangers on the street. Let us serve them in this great land, for they too may have storms at hand. Until our dying day, until we finally rest, help us rise each day and do our very best. Before the rains wash our strength away. Calm our storms Lord, each and every day. Paul A. Jones |
