The St. John-St. Paul Collaborative is sending 15 pilgrims to World Youth Day Lisbon this summer!
Please consider sponsoring one (or more!) of our young pilgrims by making a financial donation in their honor and lending your spiritual support in the form of prayer.
Your financial support will greatly reduce the individual cost of the trip, and your prayers will transform an incredible experience into an encounter with our Lord Jesus Christ and the impactful presence of His Church.
Visit our World Youth Day Lisbon 2023 page to learn more and support our young pilgrims.

A new permanent book club is being formed for our Collaborative, to read and discuss a variety of books pertaining to our Catholic faith.
Meetings are in person on the 2nd and 4th Thursday evenings of each month at St. Paul.
Our first meeting is on Thursday, June 8 from 7:00-8:30pm in the St. Paul Parish Hall. We will cover Chapters 1-4 of How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization, by Thomas E. Woods…
In keeping with tradition, a Saint John School family has sponsored the set up 1,000 American flags on the St. John the Evangelist Church lawn in honor of veterans from Wellesley and surrounding communities who have given their lives in service to our country.
We remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy every day.
We pray that God will hold our service men and women in His strong arms, and cover them with His sheltering grace and presence.
Unfortunately, with the recent departure of several of our outside celebrants from Boston College, Fr. Jim is now on his own during the week. As a result, effective immediately, the weekday Mass schedule for the summer at the Collaborative will be:
Monday and Wednesday: 9:00am St. Paul Church
Tuesday and Thursday: 7:00am St. John Church
For those looking for a daily Mass on Friday, the Weekday Mass schedules for neighboring parishes is available on the Liturgy page of our website…
This past weekend we bid a fond farewell to Fr. Borja Miró Madariaga S.J. Fr. Borja has completed his studies in Moral Theology at Boston College and is returning to Spain for his new assignment teaching at a Jesuit secondary school.
Over this past year, following his ordination to the priesthood last June in Spain, Fr. Borja has celebrated weekday and Sunday Masses, baptisms, and funerals with us, and we have been infinitely blessed by his ministry…
During the summer, we drop to four Masses on the weekend, two at each parish. Our Saturday Vigil Mass schedule remains the same. On Sundays we offer one morning Mass at each parish – one at 9:00am and one at 11:00am – and the location of the Sunday Masses rotate each year. This summer our schedule is:
Saturday
4:00pm Vigil Mass at St. Paul Church
5:00pm Vigil Mass at St. John the Evangelist Church
Sunday
9:00am Mass at St. John the Evangelist Church
11:00am Mass at St. Paul Church
Would you like to be an altar server at Collaborative Masses?
Please join us on Wednesday, May 31 at 1:30pm (early release day) at St. John or Tuesday, June 6 at 3:30pm at St. Paul for altar server training. Training will run about 45 minutes; children may be dropped off at the church or caregivers may stay for the session. Children who have trained previously but would like a “refresher” are also welcome!
