Nazareth Catholic Community
23rd Sunday of Ordinary Time - September 6, 2026
Are you or someone you know interested in becoming Catholic?
Were you baptized Catholic, but have not received the sacraments of Eucharist or Confirmation?
The OCIA process, Order of Christian Initiation of Adults, is for those who may be interested in learning more about Catholicism. We will guide inquirers on their journey to a deeper understanding of the Catholic tradition and into full communion in the Catholic Church at the 2027 Easter Vigil. If you are interested in learning more, please email Jamie Fazio at jfazio1@naz.edu.
What is Eucharistic Adoration?
Eucharistic adoration in a chapel is a Catholic practice where the consecrated bread (the Eucharist) is placed in a special holder called a monstrance for silent prayer and reflection.

St. Francis Inn is a Catholic Franciscan community located in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia where they minister among the poor and homeless by means of a soup kitchen, a thrift shop and a woman's day center. They empower persons to break the cycle of homelessness and poverty, and to address structural injustice, by building relationships, respecting their human dignity, helping them restore hope in their lives, and by living simply among them.
