We are honored to be scheduled to host the relics of Saint Thomas Aquinas as part of a sacred procession of the relics which began earlier this year in Europe.
The relics of Saint Thomas Aquinas will be available for public veneration from 8AM to 9PM on Monday, December 2, 2024.* Our full schedule appears below.

At 7PM, join us for Awaken Wisdom: An Advent Evening of Adoration and Choral Vespers. This special service will feature the Eucharistic hymns of Saint Thomas Aquinas, inviting attendees to enter Advent with prayer and reflection.
Confessions will be available from 6PM to 7PM to fulfill the usual conditions for a plenary indulgence.
Following Awaken Wisdom, all are invited to a festive reception in St. Thomas Hall. Guests can enjoy a hot chocolate toppings bar and an assortment of holiday treats as we continue the evening in fellowship and celebration.
