Communal First Saturday

Communal First Saturday is a monthly devotion at Sts. Simon & Jude, held on the first Saturday of every month in response to the request of Our Lady of Fatima. She asked for five consecutive First Saturdays of reparation through Confession, Holy Communion, Rosary, and meditation on the mysteries of the Rosary—all offered in union with her Immaculate Heart.

This beautiful tradition draws us deeper into prayer and reparation, while also building a community of Marian devotion within our parish. Each monthly gathering includes:

• 7:30 a.m. | Confession

• 7:45 a.m. | Introductory prayers & procession

• 8:00 a.m. | Rosary recitation

• 8:30 a.m. | Holy Mass with Communion of reparation

• 9:40 a.m. | Scripture meditation (lectio divina) on the Rosary mysteries

• 10:00 a.m. | Devotion concludes

Join us in honoring Our Lady, seeking peace, and growing in grace through this powerful monthly devotion. Special Brown Scapular Enrollments are offered on July 5 and October 4.
