Welcome to St Pius V! We’re so happy you're here.
Welcome! For nearly 110 years, weve celebrated the Gospel in South Jamaica. An historic fixture in our community, we are committed to live, proclaim and spread the Gospel message through example, service and worship, under the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. You are invited to come to a Mass and feel the fellowship that comes when a diverse people share time together with Christ.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
We, the faith community of St. Pius V located in South Jamaica, Queens, New York for 107 years, rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and called to spread that Gospel, value the faith, customs, traditions and diversity of our Parish and we share them in communion with the Roman Catholic Church. We are committed to live, proclaim and spread the Gospel message through example, service and worship, under the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. We will continue to celebrate the Eucharist every Sunday in English, Spanish and Portuguese. As we look forward to the next 100 years, we seek spiritual growth and unity as a community who encourages and respects each others differences but comes together in one faith. Contemplate the beauty on the face of Christ and experience the depths of His love. St. Pius V

The central Catholic act of worship is attending the Mass, or Divine Liturgy. The Mass is divided into two parts: the Liturgy of the Word, and the Liturgy of the Eucharist.
During the first part, the priest leads us in prayer and songs, praising God, thanking Him, and asking Him for forgiveness. We hear Scripture readings, the priest gives a talk, and then we all pronounce the core principles of our faith.
In the second part, the priest says the blessing, transforming bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ. We all say the "Our Father" prayer, and then receive communion. Finally, there is a closing prayer and final blessing.
