A Message from Father Lease
Beginning on Monday, August 24, we will offer daily Mass at 6:30 a.m. Monday through Friday. With the return of school, I would like to provide Mass for those who must be off to school or work; hence, the 6:30 a.m. time. Due to the sanitization requirements (we have to clean the whole church after each Mass or service); I would like to avoid overloading our hardworking maintenance staff by not scheduling additional services at this time.
The 8:30 AM Friday Mass will be for the School only, and will not be open to the public; this is to keep everyone safe and healthy. We have ordered sanitization equipment that should cut down on the cleaning time; after it arrives and after we see how school is going, I will consider adding mid-morning weekday Masses. Just a reminder: face masks must be worn at all times while in the building. – Fr. Lease
This Saturday, August 15 is the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed 
Virgin Mary.
We will have Mass for the Vigil of the Assumption of the BVM on Friday, August 14 at 7:00 p.m. The Vigil Mass will be celebrated in person and live streamed on Facebook.
This will be our only Mass for the Assumption, since 1) it is not obligatory this year and 2) we have a wedding and parish Mass on Saturday and need to be careful not to overbook the Shrine Church during COVID precautions.
