Fr Jim’s Jottings
This past week I was shocked to hear the startling news that 500,000 people have died from the Covid 19 virus. Who can comprehend what that means? Only God knows all the heartache, sorrow, and pain that this has meant to so many families. As bad as it’s been, the same tragedies await us in the days ahead. Before Christmas, a number of parishioners came together weekly to pray the rosary for an end to the pandemic. We asked our Blessed Mother to give us hope and guidance to get through this disaster. Will you join me in spending Lent praying for the same intention? Let’s pray Hail Marys throughout our day asking for her intercession. Between now and Easter CAN WE PRAY 100,000 HAIL MARYS? Everyone can do this. Will you report the number of Hail Marys you’ve prayed by calling the Parish Office (734-7195) and giving us the number? OR email to Bmauthe@saintjosephparish.org We’ll report a running tally each week…hoping to reach our target by Easter. Through this effort, we are asking for Mary’s help and we’re doing this as a Parish. Please lend us your support.
Lenten Fast and Abstinence Regulations Everyone 14 years of age or over is to abstain from meat on all the Fridays of Lent. Everyone 18 years of age and under 59 years of age must fast on Good Friday. On these days only one meatless meal is allowed. Two other smaller meatless meals may be taken. Eating between meals is not permitted on this day, but liquids, including milk and fruit juices are allowed. 
Getting Married??? Any time is a good time to get engaged, right? It seems that the holidays are often a special time when couples announce their engagement. With that in mind, we encourage couples who plan on getting married in the Church to contact the Parish sooner rather than later in their planning. Six months before the wedding date is the minimum amount of time. It’s a wise idea to contact the Parish even before setting a date with the reception hall.
