IMPORTANT!  The Archbishop has dispensed with the Sunday Mass obligation until further notice.  Updates will be made available on the parish app and Facebook page and on our new webpage under Our Parish titled COVID. Masses continue to be broadcast on Facebook live.  Church office is open. Pray for healing, protection, and peace!

Reconciliation:  This is a difficult time and I want to take a minute or two to help with us having reconciliation offered by appointment only.  See the blog that I wrote a few years ago under Priestly Ponderings.  Google the Pope; he has done some great teachings.  First, if you have a question as to whether your sin is a mortal sin or not, by definition, it is not!  Second, as the Pope has restated and the catechism is clear, if no priest is available, if you go to God and from the bottom of your heart, express your sorrow, you are forgiven and just go to reconciliation next time it is available. Also, anyone that is participating in a streamed Mass or watching on TV, when the Priest says, “May almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins…”  all but mortal sins are forgiven.

With the Corna Virus on many people's minds these days, there is much concern about the chalice at Mass.  This is from the CDC:
Officials with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta said inquiries about Communion cup dangers have been small but steady over the years.  “Theoretically, there’s a risk,” spokeswoman Bonnie Hebert said, “but the risk is so small it’s probably undetectable.”

A study by Anne LaGrange Loving found no increased risk and has said in interviews that standing in line at the movies is more of a risk.  As a self-professed germaphobe and physician said, “I have to leave it in God’s hands.”  To read more about Ms. Loving's findings CLICK HERE.
