Overflow Seating in Great HallAs the attendance at our weekend Masses increases, we will continue to practice “social distancing” as best we can. To make sure no one is sitting too close to anyone, we have overflow seating in our Great Hall. They can participate in our Mass because of the large TV screen and sound system. A Minister of Eucharist will bring Holy Communion into the Great Hall or you can come into the Church to receive our Lord.

Fr Jim’s Jottings
We’ve begun another Lenten season. I’m hoping for a good start and perseverance in making this Lent effective in my life. I hope you will join me in that hope!
Please let me suggest a few practices that could provide penance, prayer and generosity. *Throughout Lent there will be an extra hour each week for Private Confession. Currently, there are Private Confessions on Saturday at 9:00am. But every Wednesday from 5:30-6:30pm I will be in the Reconciliation Room for anyone who comes. Isn’t making a good confession one of the most important aspects of Lent? *Again, this Lent we will offer Stations of the Cross on Thursday at 5:30pm. We will share this with St Mary’s. St Mary’s will host on Feb 25, March 11 & 25. St Joe’s will host on March 4 & 18. *Finally, I invite you to consider reaching out to help us build two Habitat for Humanity homes. St Joe’s has proudly adopted this worthy cause the past nine years. We’ve had volunteers helping build these homes and we’ve managed to collect $5,000 for each home. I hope you will join us again this Lent. Thank you. 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.
