Saint Cornelius Church

"St. Cornelius Parish" on the video above.

Our parish church has been and will continue to be open on a daily basis for private prayer and devotions. In this time of transition in our national government, I encourage you to be vigilant and prayerful for our nation and for the Common Good. If you are able to stop in and make a visit to the Blessed Sacrament pray in thanksgiving for the gifts we have received and ask for continued Divine Assistance.

The Church is unlocked 12:00-4:00 PM Sundays and 8:00 AM-5:00 PM Mondays-Saturdays for private prayer. 

The Parish Life Center is open weekdays 8:00 AM - 3:30 PM.

Call the Parish Life Center if you require Anointing of the Sick.

Until further notice, there will be no Communion calls made by the clergy or Extraordinary Ministers.
