Welcome to
St. Aloysius Catholic Church Cresson, Pennsylvania Our Mission Statement:
The Parishioners of Saint Aloysius Roman Catholic Church are devoted to the mission of Jesus Christ, by living and spreading the Holy Gospel, participating in the Holy Eucharist, and honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary. We practice the spiritual and temporal works of GOD's Mercy, and invoke our patron saint to guide and protect all families. |
Welcome ADVENT!
As you know, Advent marks the beginning of our liturgical new year. From a spiritual point of view, it is an opportunity to consider how our faith-life grew or declined since last year, and how we might improve this coming year. It’s an opportunity to make a few “Spiritual Resolutions” for the new liturgical year.
So, consider carefully your relationship with Christ and how you have been living out your discipleship. What might you do differently – better – to become ever more intentional in your discipleship?

A message from Fr. Arnone:
Finding a morally acceptable Covid-19 vaccine: John Henry Westen, from LifeSiteNews, hosted a show featuring Bishop Athanasius Schneider and others who in turn cautions Catholics from using any vaccine derived from aborted fetuses. I invite you to watch the video and decide for yourself. Not mentioned in this show, however, I learned that two vaccines that are currently using aborted fetuses are produced by
Moderna (Vaccine ID: HEK293)
and Johnson and Johnson (Vaccine ID: PER C6).
Personally, I would rather die from Covid than to live because of a vaccine
derived from a murdered baby!

A message from Fr. Arnone:
How are the faithful to respond to Pope Francis?
In a recently released documentary, the Pope called for civil union laws for same sex couples.
Usually some official steps up to offer “clarification” after his unorthodox statements, but having heard none I wanted to post an article I found by John Horvat II entitled
“Faithful Resistance to Pope Francis’s Call for Civil Unions.”
