"My mission - to make God loved - will begin after my death.
I will spend my heaven doing good on earth.
I will let fall a shower of roses."
~Saint Theresa of Lisieux~
Welcome to Saint Theresa Maronite Church
Saint Theresa Church has a proud and rich history, rooted in the stories of the many Lebanese immigrants who arrived at the turn of the century.
Established in 1932, our church has long served as the focal point of the religious, cultural and social lives of Maronites living in the greater Brockton area. Built with the faith, determination and sacrifices of many Lebanese families, Saint Theresa Church, an Eastern Rite Catholic Church, now encompasses and embraces people of diverse backgrounds and creeds.
Our community is flourishing, and we extend a warm and gracious welcome to all who wish to worship God and serve Him through “faith and good works.”
Rosary
The tradition in our parish every May is to go from home to home and pray the Rosary with you. Due to the current COVID-19 situation this year the rosary is being prayed each night at 6:00 PM in the church. It is live streamed on our page on Facebook:
Saint Theresa Brockton.
AdorationInvitation to Adore Jesus in the Blessed Eucharist. You are invited to spend sometime before our Lord Jesus in the Blessed Eucharist to grow in faith and love of our Lord. How awesome is this gift in which Jesus our Lord and God is present here in the Eucharist. How awesome our Lord is to give us this way to approach our living God. What will keep you away from the gift of our Lord who awaits you to spend a little time adoring him in the Eucharist.
"Do you realize that Jesus is there in the tabernacle expressly for you - for you alone? He burns with the desire to come into your heart...don't listen to the demon, laugh at him, and go without fear to receive the Jesus of peace and love… ~St. Theresa of Lisieux~ Please Note: Eucharistic Adoration and Liturgy takes place on Thursday Evenings.
