As we continue to celebrate Mass in the Church building, I would like to remind everyone that we still need to be aware of the COVID-19 health risks. Even though the mandatory mask mandates have been lifted., we encourage those coming to Mass to wear masks to protect themselves, and also those who may be attending mass with other health concerns which may place them at a higher risk for catching COVID. For those of you who have been celebrating Mass in the parking lot, we will be moving the Sunday 5:00 p.m. Mass back into the church in the early part of November.. As more parishioners begin to complete the vaccination process, we anticipate a significant growth in our in-person attendance and will adjust our Mass times accordingly We encourage you to monitor your health for your own safety and that of others. If you feel unwell, please wait to come back to in-person services.
Our return into the Church was only the beginning of our celebration in turning the corner on the pandemic. It is be good to be back in the Church building, but always remember that WE are the Church, whether we are in a parking lot or in a building we call “the Church.” As we open the doors to a new journey, one of community building and walking as true disciples, we will do so slowly. What does this mean? Basically, we will open the Church gradually, adding Masses as attendance increases. This means that we will continue to have four (4) Sunday Masses at 9:00 a.m. (English), 11:00 a.m (English), 1:00 p.m. (Spanish), and 5:00 p.m. (English). On November 6th, the 5:00 p.m Sunday mass will move back into the Church. All our weekday. services are back in the Church. Please refer to our Mass Schedule.Thank you for your continuing patience and understanding in these challenging times. Let us pray that working together, we will get through the current difficulties and become an even more faith-filled
May the blessings of Ordinary Time fill you with health, joy, and peace of mind.
