The Original Image of the Divine Mercy
We will celebrate by showing the Original Image of the Divine Mercy movie in McCarthy Hall at St. Pius X Church. St. Faustina heard the voice of Jesus... paint an image of the pattern you see with the words, “Jesus, I trust in you!” Jesus asked her to paint his likeness! It is fitting to share this movie, she is one of our patron Saints for artists! Click on title for trailer

The Triumph of the Cross~ Apse Mosaic of Basilica of San Clemente
The Triumph of the Cross ~ The 12th Century Mosaic Apse of the Basilica of San Clemente in Rome will be our featured ART of FAITH TALK on Thursday, February 18th at 3 pm. Tune in to hear the rich symbolism presented within this beautiful Jesus Crucified mosaic. Listen to the meaning of the words of "Abide in Me, and I will Abide in you. I am the Vine and You are the Branches"; along with the rich Catholic roots and heritage depicted in this piece of artwork.
Announcing our 10th Annual Art of Faith Sacred Art show and sale! It will look different this year since we are unable to gather in large groups. Artists can create and share new works of this theme. We will be going online for this event due to CoVid-19 restrictions. God willing we will be able to meet again for an art show at a later date. We will celebrate the fruits of our labor of the past 9 years of the sacred art shows through previous talks, music, poems and artwork celebrating each year’s theme. We take Feb. 18, the feast of Blessed Fra Angelico, patron Saints of artists for the celebration of our event as this was the day of our first Art of Faith Show. For a series of 10 days we will be commemorating the the previous shows celebrating art, and music of each theme posting them on this Facebook group. Stay tuned! Feb. 18- Feb. 27
