NEW & UPDATED INFORMATION
As reported before, we received updated Liturgical Directives for the Celebration of Palm Sunday, Holy Week and Easter. All public Masses are still suspended through this period. The celebrations for Holy Week and Easter will all be celebrated in private and available to view live. Please see information below since we are now able to provide live streaming for the Sacred Triduum and Easter. The schedule of times is slightly adjusted from what was originally published.
Live streaming will be available through our Parish YouTube channel, FaceBook, and website. Video recordings will be posted once live streaming has ended.
We are very grateful for our donors who made this live streaming opportunity available to our parish family by their direct contribution to this effort. Praised be Jesus Christ! Now and forever!
PARISH LENTEN CONFESSIONS - These times will remain available for individual confessions. However, the priests will be set up in Church to hear Confessions, allowing for social distancing. If you are ill, do not come to Confession, please. Also please use the hand sanitizers in the narthex upon entering and leaving Church.

We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge your generous past support. Due to that previous support we continue to be able to function well as a parish.
In these uncertain and unprecedented times, we are grateful to all our parishioners who are remaining faithful to their sacrificial donations supporting our parish and our ministries. Although we cannot gather to worship or to meet together, the parish expenses continue right along. In order to facilitate your donations to the parish, we have added a new convenience, an E-giving Text number for your mobile phone. Of course, if you are already an E-giver, thanks so much. Your donations can also be mailed to the parish office or you can set up a payment plan with your personal bank to do it automatically. Many thanks!
During this time while public Mass is suspended, our Parish priests will record the celebration of Holy Mass. Our Heavenly Father continues to gathers us together in unique ways.
Check back for weekly updates.
