Hi Everyone! Unfortunately we will be canceling the Christmas Eve Masses. The weather is too serve and travel bans are place. I will be streaming the 4:00 p.m. and Midnight Masses. They can be watched on the St Jude the Apostle website stjudetheapostleparish.org or the Stjohndelasalle facebook page (this one). I am not quite sure yet about Christmas Day yet. Please fell welcome to share this post. THANK YOU LETTER FROM SALVATTI FUNDATION TO THOSE WHO SUPPORT UKRAINE IN THIS DIFFICULT TIME OF WAR! Welcome back dear parishioners! We are now open under guidance from the Diocese. Please read the policies that have been put in place for our parish. The obligation to attend Sunday Mass is dispensed through the end of June 2020. The public celebration of the Holy Mass resumes Monday, June 8, 2020 and moving forward. A face mask should be worn at Mass. Social distancing of six feet between individuals who do not share the same household is expected. Please take a missal from the table at the church entrance and bring it home with you after Mass so you have it for next time. The Congregation is asked not to sing at this time to reduce the spread of the virus. Only baskets with long handles will be used for collections, but the Mass will continue because there is no procession with gifts. There should be no physical contact at the “Our Father” or at the Sign of Peace (a simple bow with eye contact is sufficient). Please bring your own hand sanitizer and use it before joining the Communion procession. The Communion procession should occur as usual but communicants should have a 6 ft distance between each other. Holy Communion will be placed in the palm of your hand only. There will be no distribution of the Precious Blood to the laity. The Priest will not greet you, dear parishioners, entering or leaving the Church, eliminating the temptations of touching or hugging. All persons, as defined by the Health Department, as more vulnerable, such as 65+years of age, those with underlying health conditions, fever or flu-like symptoms are encouraged to stay at home; however, attendance is at their discretion. Whenever there is a public gathering nowadays, there is a risk for anyone to contract coronavirus, so use prudence and, if concerned or fearful, please follow Holy Mass on TV or on Facebook. During this period the Church will be open during the day. If you have someone in need of Sacrament of the Sick or Sacrament of Reconciliation or if you have a funeral to schedule please call the office 283-2238 Ext. 308 or (716)579-4949. |
