St. Patrick's Day Dispensation

Bishop Malesic has granted dispensation from the obligation to abstain from eating meat on St. Patrick’s Day, Friday, March 17th. Bishop Malesic asks that those who exercise this dispensation select another non-Friday day during Lent to abstain from eating meat or to make some offering on behalf of the poor, whether by prayer, fasting, or almsgiving.

Collection Envelopes

Due to supply chain and staffing issues, our current offering envelope vendor has suspended the production for February’s envelopes. The offering envelopes will resume delivery by the first Sunday in March. There are blank envelopes available near the collection baskets in Church for you to use in the meantime. We apologize for any inconvenience and are currently monitoring the situation.

Sunday Mass

Effective, June 2, 2021, the public health care mandates issued by Governor DeWine have ceased. The Ohio Catholic Conference of Bishops in light of this have reinstated the obligation to attend Sunday Mass. The letter from Bishop Malesic on this matter can be found here. As stated in the letter, this resumption of the obligation does not require those who are unable to come or who judge Covid 19 to be a deadly risk to attend Mass. A more thorough explanation on this can be found here. 

In order to accomodate those who would be relunctant to attend Mass, we are going to have two sections of the Church remain at 50%. We are also asking that everyone continue to wear a mask when they enter and leave the church. Once in your pew, you may, of course, take your mask off. At least one minister of Holy Communion will wear a mask for the same reason.

We are truly looking forward to seeing everyone back in church. If you have questions about this, please contact Fr. John.
