COVID Mass Capacity Update

We are allowed to increase to a maximum of 200 people at Mass, including those serving the Mass. Praised be the Lord!

Registering ahead for Masses will no longer be required as of the first weekend in January. We still need to abide by the capacity limitations, social distancing, and use of masks. But Hallelujah!

Formed – Exciting News!

Every year the parish gives a gift of a reflection book for Lent (and Advent). This year, the gift is the FORMED program. It’s like a Catholic Netflix, but even better! It has movies, audios, e-books, study programs, faith formation… It’s for all ages AND it has Spanish content, too!

After every Mass this weekend (2/27 & 28), Teresa will be in the Gathering Space, again, to show the types of content FORMED has; to help people upload the app on their smart phones; and to talk thru the process of connecting on your computers at home. Bring your phones, ipads, tablets and laptops with you!

Masks and spacing restrictions apply.
