My dearly beloved in Christ,
In reaction to the ongoing “Panic-demic” and in compliance with the edict of the Diocesan Ordinary all public celebrations of the Holy Mass are hereby suspended. The Bishop has commanded all priests to celebrate the Sacred Mysteries daily but, privately. He has also taken the exceptional step of allowing all weekend Mass Intentions to be combined into one.
Be assured that the Altars of this Church will not sit idly by while plague covers the earth. Daily – at random times will Calvary be renewed here calling down Grace like dew from heaven.
During these trying times the Faithful are encouraged to make visits to the Blessed Sacrament and multiple Spiritual Communions (Holy Cards are available at every entrance and in the pews). Please note: should you come to make a visit and find your pastor immersed in the Redemptive Action, please, assist in accord with your Baptismal priesthood, and make a Spiritual Communion. Do not presume to approach the Rail. As this is a “Private Mass” the distribution of Communion to the faithful will not occur.
Be prudent. Be prayerful and remember, we are a Religion of Hope.
Our Lady of Hope, pray for us who have recourse to thee.
