Most of our church activities will either be cancelled or postponed, from now until Friday, April 3 (a little over two weeks). The COVID-19 outbreak is “fluid.” Fr. Steve and parish staff will revisit the situation as it unfolds and later make an announcement regarding Holy Week and Easter.
Closed/cancelled: Parish office, weekend Masses, weekday masses and scripture studies, Stations of the Cross, funerals, Faith Formation classes.
Postponed: March 22 Confirmation, Fr. Steve’s next two bible study sessions.
Fish Fries will continue but only with drive-up service. No Social Hall dining. Please see this updated post about the modified Fish Fries.
Decisions have not yet been made about Loaves and Fishes and St. Mary’s Heath Clinic.
