Exciting Parish Staff News!
We are delighted to share that the Archdiocese has appointed Fr. Anthony Joseph Sales (aka Fr. AJ) as our new Parochial Vicar, effective February 1st. He will be serving alongside Fr. Edmund, Fr. Mark, and Fr. Luis, bringing his gifts and dedication to our vibrant community. He is currently serving in town at Holy Spirit Parish, where he is deeply loved and respected. We are thrilled to welcome him to St. Thomas More and look forward to the blessings his presence will bring. Please join us in praying for Fr. AJ as he begins this new chapter of ministry with us!

Big News, Parish Family!
Parishioners, you’re officially able to subscribe to Hallow (the #1 Catholic prayer & meditation app in the world) via our parish partnership brought to you by the Knights of Columbus.
How it works:
- If you want to simply enjoy the free content, all you need to do is create a Hallow account and join St Thomas More under the “Church” tab.
- If you want your six free months to enjoy all Hallow has to offer, you just need to sign up to Hallow via Hallow.com/parish on a web browser. Find our parish via the 89074 zip code. Create an account because this works only for brand new Hallow users. Redeem the subscription. Download the app to your phone. Log in, and go to the “church” tab. You’ll be all set.
- If you have a current paid subscription, please email us at hallow@stmlv.org prior to its renewal to discuss your options
Beginning February 18 (Ash Wednesday), all who have joined will be able to pray with us via Hallow’s Lenten Pray 40 challenge that will take place daily through Easter! Let’s make it a great Lent, everyone! If any help is needed, please email us at the above address, and we will assist! Next weekend, you will hear more about our partnership and the app itself.

If you didn't know, our Wednesdays now consist of Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament at 4:50 pm, Confessions from 4:50 pm to 5:50 pm, Benediction at 5:50 pm, and Mass at 6:00 pm. On the first Wednesday of each month, we will maintain this schedule; however, Adoration will begin immediately following our 8:00 am Mass. Please note that the following date(s) will not adhere to this schedule due to previously scheduled events: February 18th, March 18th, and April 1st. We will make every effort to inform you of any changes in advance.

Assistance Needed (Updated)
Please keep an eye out for fake plants—ferns, palms, or anything jungle‑themed—at yard sales, clearance aisles, or while shopping online. We’ll be using them to create our VBS environment, and we’d love your help making Vacation Bible School 2026 amazing! If you receive Amazon (or other) packages, please save any long packing paper (5 feet or longer). It will be transformed into jungle vines for our VBS décor—so please don’t flatten it. Donations can be dropped off at the Community Center during business hours. Thank you for helping bring this fun vision to life!

We Are Always In Need Of Sponsors
Those journeying through the sacraments of initiation, like Becoming Catholic (OCIA) or Confirmation, are on a journey that allows interested individuals an opportunity to examine the Christian faith in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. The people on this wonderful faith journey need a partner, a fellow traveler, because sometimes the road is difficult, and it’s not always easy to see where it’s leading. They need a companion, a guide, and a friend who knows the way. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor or have any questions, please contact Mary Thompson (303-907-0451 or mary.thompson782@gmail.com) or Deacon Dan Maier (702-325-5975 or dcndan@stmlv.org).
Holy Communion For The Sick
If you are unable to leave your home, please contact Patti Sabo at 702-269-3110 to arrange for an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion to visit you. If you are hospitalized, please notify the hospital staff of your Catholic faith and desire to receive Communion.
