PLEASE PRAY FOR THE SICK AND SHUT-INS
FROM THE PASTOR
This coming week is a big one for the liturgical celebrations of some favorites: Tuesday, September 29 is the Feast of Sts. Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael, Archangels; Wednesday, September 30 is the Memorial of St. Jerome, Doctor of the Church; Thursday, October 1 is the Memorial of St. Teresa of the Child Jesus (aka Therese of Lisieux); and Friday, October 2 is the Memorial of the Guardian Angels.
This week is also 1st Thursday (with recitation of the Rosary after the daily Mass); 1st Friday (with Adoration and Benediction after Mass); and 1st Saturday (Traditional Latin Mass at 9 a.m.).
Speaking of Adoration, we're going to try expanding the availability of Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in the parish. In October, we will be having Adoration on every Friday of the month, for an hour following the 8 a.m. daily Mass. As I get things more sorted and organized, my goal is to have Adoration available at least one day per week for an extended period -- like 11 or 12 hours, so that those with various schedules are able to pay a visit and spend some time in Adoration.
To those among you who may remain uneasy about attending Mass on the weekend, I urge you to consider coming to a daily Mass during the week. Daily Masses, since we reopened in May, have been and continue to be celebrated in the main church (rather than in the chapel). With daily Mass attendance at about 20-40 persons (depending on the day), social distancing is very easy to maintain for everyone -- there is an abundance of room to "spread out." So, if you're missing being able to be at Mass, consider that as an option.
Finally, a word of thanks to our Knights of Columbus council. This week they will be providing a meal to area first responders (law enforcement, firefighters, and emergency medical personnel) for the hard work and sacrifice that first responders live with on a daily basis as they serve the community. The meal will be available at our picnic pavilion. In this era of COVID-19, all guidelines and recommendations of public health authorities will, of course, be observed.
Fr. Tebalt
Please pray for all our loved ones serving with the armed forces, especially Jordan Austin and Cody Piontek.
