"For it is in the liturgy, especially in the divine sacrifice of the Eucharist, that "the work of our redemption is accomplished," and it is through the liturgy especially that the faithful are enabled to express in their lives and manifest to others the mystery of Christ and the real nature of the true Church."
Sacrosanctum concilium

Parish Registration

Please, no pseudonyms or obfuscated names - your real name please. It will never be revealed to anyone other than the Parish staff (and there's only one of us!)

Membership is generally open to all Catholic & Orthodox bloggers. There aren't theological restrictions per se, but we ask that Catholic members recognize and respect the Magisterium of the Church and be obedient to the Pope and authorities under him. After all, without those, you aren't really Catholic are you? We ask that Orthodox members be obedient to their patriarchs. Beyond that, we simply ask that you blog charitably and of course the parish must be family-friendly. If you encounter a member blog of SBPA that is vulgar, pornographic, violent, or hateful, Let us know immediately. The final decision to list a site rests solely with the Parish office. Required form fields are marked with an asterisk.
