Normal Mass Schedule is Resumed

A few important things to note...

1. Sunday obligation to attend Mass is still lifted. It is NOT a sin not to come to Mass.

2. The 10:30am Sunday Mass will be streamed here on this page.

Personal responsibility and fraternal charity are the themes during this time. We are relying on people taking personal responsibility for keeping themselves and others safe and limiting risks. We are relying on fraternal charity. This means if someone isn't following the guidelines, we don't need to shame them. We don't need to be personally offended. We must always assume the best intentions of our brothers and sisters in Christ. We don't need to judge anyone.

*Masses will have distribution of Holy Communion

**Plenty of opportunities to get to Confession before receiving Holy Communion if you need the spring cleaning of your soul!

Before attending Mass, please be sure to read the COVID-19 Protocols so you can keep yourself and others safe.
