Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Many of you have heard about the heartbreaking shooting that occurred yesterday morning at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. As a community of faith, we mourn the loss of innocent lives and pray for healing for all those affected, especially the children, families, and parishioners who are now facing unimaginable grief.


In moments like these, we are reminded of our shared responsibility to be vigilant, compassionate, and united in prayer. Our parish and school remain deeply committed to the safety and well-being of every child, family, and staff member. We continue to uphold and practice our safety protocols daily, and we are grateful for the presence of Mr. Aviles, our dedicated security personnel, as well as the support of the Richland County Sheriff's Department.


Let us come together in prayer for the victims, their families, and the entire Annunciation parish and community. May God’s mercy bring comfort and may our faith guide us in responding with love and strength.


In Christ’s peace,

Father Sandy McDonald

Catholic FAQs

  • When was the Catholic Church founded?

    Jesus Christ  founded the Catholic Church in 33 A.D. 

  • Do Catholics worship Mary and Saints?

    No. We look to them as role models and ask for their intercessions.

  • Do Catholics read the Bible?

    Yes! Our Faith is based on Scripture and Tradition. When looking at the Mass you will find over 100 scriptural references.

  • Are Catholics Anti-Science?

    No, Catholicism teaches that reason (science) and faith are complimentary, meaning they work together! In the early days of the scientific renaissance many Catholic clergy were scientists based upon their education. In fact, it was Catholic clergy that first proposed the Big Bang Theory!

  • Is the Pope infallible (never wrong)?

    Yes and No. The pope is considered infallible only when he speaks in ex cathedra, meaning when he speaks on matters of faith from his chair at the Basilica of St. John Lateran.

  • Can I return to the Catholic Church?

    The Catholic Church welcomes everyone who has stopped participating in the life of the church and there are many resources to help.
