Coronavirus
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, nearly all activity at the parish has been suspended. This includes Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, Public Masses, St. Patrick's Dinner Dance, Religious Education and Confirmation classes, Stations of the Cross and Soup Suppers. This pause will continue until the 29th of March...and likely longer. The thrift store has also been closed for the duration of the crisis.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation will continue to be available from 3:30pm to 4:30pm on Saturdays in the Baptistry, or by appointment.
The Open Pantry will have a 'Grab & Go' on Saturday, March 21st.
Let's continue to pray for God's wisdom and strength during this extraordinary time.
