We Worship Because He Is Worthy
Worship is something we give, because Jesus Christ gave everything for us.
Authentic worship instills a desire to live our lives for God and to fulfill the vocations to which God calls us, whether ordained or laity.
- Bishop Edward Malesic, A Flourishing Apostolic Church
Mass and Devotions
Catholic worship is not just a weekly obligation or spiritual habit. It’s a life-giving encounter with the living God.
When we gather at Mass, we’re not spectators. We’re participants in the Paschal Mystery, offering ourselves with Christ in a sacrifice of love.
We don’t come for what we get. We come to give God what He deserves: our adoration, our repentance, our praise, our hearts.
And in return, He gives us more than we could ever imagine: Jesus, fully present in the Eucharist—Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.
The Church draws her life from the Eucharist.

Why Worship Matters
We were created for communion—with God and with one another. But sin fractured that communion. Worship is how we are drawn back.
It’s how we remember who we are and whose we are.
In the liturgy, Heaven touches Earth. Christ speaks. The Word is proclaimed. The Spirit is poured out. The Father receives our offering.
And then we are sent out, transformed by God’s grace.

Our goal is not performance. Our goal is presence: to help every heart see Jesus.
We’re the Avon Catholic Community.
No matter where you’ve been, there’s a place for you here. A place to encounter God. A place to be known and loved. A place to grow in faith.
