Make a Spiritual Communion
If you cannot physically receive Holy Communion, make a Spiritual Communion instead, asking God to come into your heart as if you received Him sacramentally — Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. For instance, you can say this:
Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Blessed Sacrament.
I love You above all things and I desire You in my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
As though You were already there,
I embrace You and unite myself to You;
permit not that I should ever be separated from You.
Amen.
Our Lady of Fatima Linked to Most Holy Trinity
As of March 1, 2021 Our Lady of Fatima and Most Holy Trinity are linked.
Fr. Andres Mendoza, Pastor, assisted by Fr. Eduar Gutierrez, Parochial Vicar, and Fr. Matthew Collins, Parochial Vicar.
This linkage will be followed by merger of the two parishes (and a later merger with the Church of the Resurrection). For the parishioners of all three parishes, this is a major turning point. All have had their own separate parish histories of worship and service and sacrificial support by parishioners. Now, we are being asked to embrace a new vision as members of one parish across the whole town, and to create a new history together with eventually three campuses.

A transition team has formed to plan the merger of Our Lady of Fatima and Most Holy Trinity, assisted by the pastoral planning department of the Archdiocese. (click here)
