Please know that we are working hard to make sure that all of our video streaming equipment is working properly, so if you have any trouble viewing the Mass online or on KNXT Channel 49, please let us know!

Thank you for watching and continuing to pray with your parish family from home!
Update 3/26/2020: It is with heavy hearts that we inform you, our parish family, that the cancellation of all parish gatherings and Masses will extend through Easter Sunday and still indefinitely beyond Easter Sunday. The celebrations of Holy Week, including Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday must take place without the physical presence of a congregation and cannot be rescheduled or postponed as decreed by Pope Francis. We will continue to LIVE stream and televise these Masses so that you can listen to the Word of God and unite with one another in prayer from home.
We know that this is a rather difficult time that is affecting everyone in the world, but we encourage you during this time to stay strong in your faith and personal relationship with God through prayer, reading of Holy Scripture, your Lenten observances and your loving service to your family. Remember St. Paul's words to the Colossians, "let the peace of Christ control your hearts," and if there is any way that we can help you or you would like us to pray for you for any need, please reach out to us online or call our parish office at (559) 434-7701.
With this update, we want you to remember to pray in a special way for those in our RCIA and Religious Education programs who looked forward to receiving the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and First Communion, which now must be rescheduled to a later date. Our D.R.E. will reschedule the First Communion Masses and Bishop Brennen will determine an appropriate day to celebrate the Sacraments for RCIA.
Please check our website regularly for further updates. Continue to pray and know that we are praying for you, too! May God help us through this time and give His healing, joy and peace to all who are suffering in our world.

What is FORMED?
We are so glad that you asked.
FORMED, a revolutionary online platform, provides access to the best Catholic audio talks, movies, eBooks, and video-based studies from trusted providers like Augustine Institute, Ignatius Press, Catholic Answers, Sophia Institute Press, St. Paul Center, and more, that can help to "form" us as we journey on our faith walk.
FORMED presents a tremendous opportunity to help the overwhelming majority of Catholics change the way they consume media and develop a daily habit of faith formation and prayer.
FORMED is geared toward every age; children, teens, young adults and adults.
Some of the many categories included are; Exploring the Catholic Faith, Saints, Inspirational, Documentaries, Biographies, Rome Reports, Apologetics, Conversion Stories, Marriage and Family, Prayer and Spirituality and so much more!
Many of these are also available in Spanish.
Many of us are not able to make it to make it to a traditional class with a specific schedule. This is a great way to be inspired and to learn more about our faith in the comfort of your home at your convenience.
Holy Spirit has purchased a parish subscription to FORMED and it is free to all of our parishioners.
