WELCOME NEWCOMERS AND VISITORS!

Thank you for visiting with us, today! Regrettably, we are unable to host our customary social gatherings at present. We look forward to when those can resume. Please note that, at the traditional Mass, Holy Communion is always received on the tongue, and—for those physically able—while kneeling. There is no need to respond ‘Amen’. Chapel veils are available in the vestibule to borrow for Mass or visiting the church to spend time with Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. If you would like to register as a parishioner, registration forms can be found in the vestibule. Completed forms can be submitted to the Church Office. For questions, please contact the parish secretary or ask Father McCambridge.
