Dear Parishioners:
A Happy and Blessed New Year to all of you! I pray that 2021 will be filled with the hope and peace we desperately need.
As COVID cases increase in our local area, we urge all to follow the recommendations of our health officials. We are still required to hold all liturgies outside, including our Sunday and weekday Masses as well as funerals and weddings.
When the cases decrease, we will be able to return to inside worship with proper social distancing and masks as we already do outside.
The Lord is indeed with us during this most difficult time. He has not abandoned us during the uncertainty and unrest that plagues us today. All of us need to be instruments of calm, peace, hope and encouragement to one another. This is our role as priest, prophet and king that we received at our baptism.
May God continue to bless all of you and let you know of his tender care for you and your families.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Reverend Monsignor Paul Albee
Pastor
