COVID-19 Directives

All visitors to our churches, office and properties must abide by diocesan and CDC directives which includes wearing masks, sanitizing, practicing social distancing, and to avoid congregating.  Please use only the portable chairs or specially-marked pews.  This is so only the designated areas will have need of (daily) cleaning rather than all seating surfaces.  We will continue to be vigilant in doing our part to help reduce the spread of COVID-19.  (Please note that all activities listed are subject to change in keeping with COVID-19 guidelines.)

Additional Confession Times

Examination of Conscience Guides
In preparation for participating in the Sacrament of Penance, an examination of conscience is a sound practice to perform.  This involves prayerful consideration of your thoughts, words, and deeds in order to bring to memory any previously unforgiven sins.  To access a selection of Examinations of Conscience guides as offered on the website of the US Catholic Conference of Bishops, CLICK HERE.

An Act of Spiritual Communion

"If we are deprived of Sacramental Communion, let us replace it, as far as we can, by spiritual communion, which we can make every moment; for we ought to have always a burning desire to receive the good God. Communion is to the soul like blowing a fire that is beginning to go out, but that has still plenty of hot embers; we blow, and the fire burns again. After the reception of the Sacraments, when we feel ourselves slacken in the love of God, let us have recourse at once to spiritual communion.”
