Holy Week Information, Schedule and Livestream Links
Enter into the heart of our faith this Holy Week—walk with Christ through His passion, death, and glorious resurrection. Join our parish family in prayer, reflection, and celebration as we commemorate these sacred mysteries together.
All Masses and Services listed below take place in the church at St. Ignatius Loyola Parish located at 3235 Arden Way-Sacramento, CA.
ARDEN WAY ROADWORK INFORMATION:
The bike lane construction project is drawing close to its completion. However, work is still progressing on the entrance to the main church parking lot. PLEASE exercise caution entering the parking lot from Arden Way. There are two lanes open for the moment: one lane of ENTRY on the east/Church side, and one lane of EXIT/EGRESS on the West side closer to the edge of the property.
FOR HOLY WEEK AND EASTER we strongly suggest that you ENTER from Arden Way and EXIT through our alley to Morse Avenue. Left turns onto Arden from the main lot are always risky, and Easter traffic is always heavy. Please use extreme caution and drive safely. Please, no entry into the main lot through the one-way alleyway off of Morse Avenue.
STARTING ON MONDAY, APRIL 6TH work will begin on the second half of the new parking lot driveway. From April 6th until further notice you will be able TO ENTER THE MAIN LOT FROM ARDEN WAY AND YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO EXIT THE LOT VIA THE ALLEY WAY ONTO MORSE AVENUE. This traffic pattern will continue until the main entrance is completed around April 22.
We will have traffic monitors on duty for our Easter Masses and the weekends following. Please observe their directions for the safety of all. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
