Dear St. Joseph Parish Family,
This Sunday is Halloween and the annual Halloween parade down 6th Ave is back. The 6th Precinct has informed us that by 6 PM they are expecting very large crowds to be forming and it will be difficult to cross 6th Ave. Because of this, we are going to keep the front gates of the church locked and ask that anyone who is planning on attending the 6 PM mass enter through the doors on Washington Place, the side doors of the church, that lead to the narthex. We also recommend trying to get to the church from the west side if at all possible.
If you want to avoid the crowds please consider coming to an earlier Mass on Sunday.
God Bless,
Fr. Boniface
