ATTEND MASS WITH LESS RESTRICTIONS!!
We miss you! We have lifted most restrictions for those who are vaccinated. For those who are not vaccinated or still prefer social distancing, there will be a designated section at each parish where masks and separation are required. We even have Holy Water touch-less dispensers at each entrance! Get more details here.
