St. Joan of Arc

We will live stream Mass and other Lenten devotions on the St. Joan of Arc Facebook page to help you stay engaged with your faith during this health crisis.

Sunday Mass: 9:30 am

Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord
While we may be physically isolated, we are not separated in our faith. We are united as the body of Christ. We are inviting our parishioners to place a palm branch on the door of your house to show our connection to each other as we enter into the Holiest of weeks.
 
Mass on Palm Sunday will be live streamed at 9:30 am.
Blessed palms will be available to pick up from outside the church following Mass through Wednesday of Holy Week.

Dear SJA Parishioners, 

It is with heavy hearts that we have to announce that after being our Pastor for the last six years, Fr. Pat has been asked by Archbishop Aymond to become the new Pastor of Holy Spirit Parish in Algiers beginning July 1. Fr. David, who has been our Parochial Vicar this past year, will become our new Pastor also beginning July 1. We will not be getting a new Parochial Vicar so Fr. David will be the only priest here with us at St. Joan of Arc. Please keep Fr. Pat and Fr. David in your prayers as they begin to prepare for these transitions in the coming months. They are also firmly committed to continuing to serve all of us here at SJA during this difficult time as we continue to carry the cross of the Coronovirus pandemic and see us through it to the resurrection that lays ahead of us. God's blessings to you all and happy Laetare Sunday.
