“Human fatherhood gives us an anticipation of who God is. But when this fatherhood does not exist, when it is experienced only as a biological phenomenon, without its human and spiritual dimension, all statements about God the Father are empty. The crisis of fatherhood we are living today is an element, perhaps the most important, threatening man in his humanity. The dissolution of fatherhood and motherhood is linked to the dissolution of our being sons and daughters.”
—Pope Benedict XVI

Fathers Day

PERHAPS NOW MORE THAN EVER, we feel the need to offer our prayers and efforts here at the Shrine for the sanctity and preservation of fatherhood in a world increasingly alligned against it. This Fathers’ Day, we invite you to honor your beloved fathers, corporeal and spiritual, living and deceased, by enrolling them in this year’s Mass. What more graced way is there for us to bless the fathers with whom God has blessed us?
Masses offered at 7:30, 9:30, and 11:30 am
Attend in person
Visit the Shrine with your fathers and families this year. High Mass will be offered at 11:30. If this will be your first visit to the Shrine, check our Schedule page for more information on confession times, parking, and directions.
