AN ACT OF SPIRITUAL COMMUNION:
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
Prayer of Saint Michael
We invite you to recite the prayer of Saint Michael with us as Pope Francis and Saint John Paul II have recommended, “to obtain help in the battle against the forces of darkness and against the spirit of this world.”
“St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.”
We invite you and encourage you to return to attending Mass in-person!

*Sunday 6:30 Mass resumes on September 12th but only on High School Religious Ed. class nights. Since Fr Riley is our only priest, he will offer 6:30 Mass on high school class nights this year. Hopefully we get an associate priest next year and the 6:30 Mass can return to weekly.

What to expect as you return to Mass at St. Luke Parish now the obligation to attend Mass has been reestablished by Bishop McManus:
- The Prayer of St. Michael will be recited right after Communion at all Sunday Masses. In reciting this beautiful prayer, we seek St. Michael's protection for the Church and for ourselves.
- Fonts at the doors will be filled with Holy Water so you can bless yourself as you enter the church.
- We resume approaching the altar from the center aisle for Communion, returning to our seats by the side aisles. Kindly be respectful of distancing.
- Select pews will remain roped off for social-distancing.
- The 7:30am Mass will now be a "Silent" Mass; that is, there will be no music.
Mass will continue to be live-streamed and broadcast on Westborough TV for our vulnerable and home-bound parishioners.
