Pilgrimage – Bavaria and Austria

Bulletin for the Week of September 19,2021

It brings joy to the Lord and to the parish to see adults continue their journey of faith in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA). The program was designed some years ago by the church for adults who seek to become Catholic and for those already Catholic who need to complete the Sacraments of Holy Communion and Confirmation.  We have several catechists who teach in the program.  Classes will begin in the fall.

If you or some family member or friend you know would like to receive the Sacraments, please call the Parish Office to register for the classes.  Candidates will receive their Sacraments at the Easter Vigil Mass on Holy Saturday.

Over the next couple of months Deacon Larry, Fr. Vernon and I will be working to bring back together all the Altar Servers.  This will require some simple practices, and of course, we will proceed with the safety of all in mind.  We invite back all who have served with us in the past and we will be in touch with you shortly.  If you are going into fourth grade or older you are welcome to become an Altar Server.  Please e-mail us to indicate your interest (holyspiritchurch1969@verizon.net)..  Though it may take some time, we all really look forward to having our servers back at God’s Altar.

New Protocols – Effective July 10th, 2021 for all Masses

The following are the Covid 19 protocols in place for Mass attendance.  

1.    All unvaccinated individuals are required to wear face coverings.

2.    We continue to recommend that people sanitize their hands when they enter the church and prior
        to the reception of Holy Communion.

3.    Holy Communion is to be received in the hand.

I'm truly delighted to see the increasing number of people participating at Mass..

God Bless,

Fr. John
