Sacrament of Reconciliation: Saturday 3-4 p.m.
Holy Mass: Saturday 4:30 p.m., Sunday 8 a.m. (streamed) & 10:30 a.m.
In the hope of assuring that everyone stays as safe and comfortable as possible, we ask that all Mass attendees wear a mask.
Fully masked section far left: Beginning this weekend, parishioners who are particularly concerned about masking and distancing should sit in the far left section of the sanctuary, opposite the choir. We ask that all individuals in this area will wear their mask for the duration of Mass and remain safely distanced.
If you prefer to receive the Eucharist on the tongue, please sit or come up the communion line on the far right section nearest the choir. On this side, we will have hand sanitizer available for the minister of Holy Communion to purify their hands if necessary between communicants.
Thank you for helping all of our fellow parishioners feel safer and more comfortable.
THANK YOU – To everyone that worked and visited our Chicken Dinner this weekend! ANOTHER SUCCESS! Tasty food and fellowship were on the menu!!
