Welcome back! We missed you and hope you felt our prayers for you!
Daily Mass Monday - Friday at 8:30 a.m. has resumed! Saturday Vigil Mass at 4:00 p.m. and Sunday Masses at 8:00 a.m. 10:00 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.(in espanol) have resumed.
Guidelines and what to expect when returning to church:
* Smiles, "Air Hugs" , and patience are appreciated
* Entrance will be through the main doors only or if needing the Handicap door a volunteer will be present to let you in. Our
capacity is 150 people only at this time- so first come, first seated is available only
* Everyone should wear masks
* Before entering church hand sanitizer will be available for you to clean your hands
* To keep social distancing in place some pews are marked "not available". Household members may sit together
* Keep the 6 ft rule when selecting an available pew
* Sign of peace is by bowing
* Please stay in your pew for the entire Mass. Holy communion will be brought to you and please receive by hand only.
* Cry room, water fountain and restroom area will be closed. Only the "Family restroom" area will be available
* Offertory baskets will be placed at the entrance of the main door or you can contribute online through our website or by mail
* Father will dismiss people by sections at the end of the Mass. You may exit through any of the doors keeping in mind social
distancing
* After each Mass volunteers will be wiping down pews and common areas
Confession will resume in the church on Saturdays beginning at 3:00 p.m. until 3:45 p.m. before the Vigil Mass. You may still call the office and make an appointment for confession.
The Saturday Vigil Mass will be recorded and made available in English and Spanish on Sunday morning for those who will not be able to attend. (The YouTube link will be posted on this website and on Facebook)
A general dispensation from the Sunday obligation will remain.
Many people, especially those who are at risk of possible infection or illness, and those who care for them, are strongly encouraged to stay home and participate by watching our online Mass. This also means that one can come to church for Mass on any day of the week (not just Sunday). This will help to give people more of a chance to celebrate Mass in person at least once a week.
