Dear Parishioners,

The pandemic that we are currently experiencing has certainly changed our lives in ways that we could scarcely have imagined even a few months ago.  We are weary of the virus and we are weary of the restrictions that have been imposed upon us and would like everything to get back to normal—including, and especially, getting back to Mass.  However, what is becoming clear is that we will have to live with a “new normal” for some time.  In this mailing, we are including information about our gradual or partial return to Mass and Confessions.  In the meantime, we have been busy preparing our churches for this return by cleaning our churches and getting the necessary equipment and supplies to keep them sanitized.
 
Even as we begin the process of gradual re-opening, Bishop Deeley wishes to remind everyone that he has continued to exempt everyone from the obligation to attend Mass on Sunday’s and Holy Days until further notice.  Anyone who is older or of weakened health should exercise prudence and not put themselves (or others) at risk.  We also want to express our appreciation to those who have continued to submit their weekly offerings—thank you and God bless you!
 Sincerely yours in the Lord,

Fr. Robert D. Lariviere
Pastor
