Dear Holy People of God,

Welcome Home!  God is good, all the time! And all the time, God is good!

We have taken every necessary precaution to ensure your safety as we have re-opened our church for public Masses.  It is important that each of you are aware of the requirements for attending Mass and ensure that you have followed all safety practices in order to attend.  Adjustments will be made based on the latest information from the Archdiocese and the Governor.

Parishioners must schedule in advance to attend Mass.  There are 54 available seats per Mass. You can sign up for Mass by clicking the SIGNUPGENIUS button above or by calling the Parish Office.  Mass times are as follows:  Saturday - 4 pm; Sunday - 8:30 am, 11 am.  Daily Mass - 9 am (in the Main Church).

CLICK ON THE SIGNUPGENIUS BUTTON ABOVE TO REGISTER FOR MASS.

We will be sending out email blasts to keep you informed, as well as posting information here on our website and on our Facebook page.  I encourage anyone who is not receiving an e-mail with the bulletin and the notice of the video-taped Mass to send their email address to the Parish Office at stannesalem@aol.com. While we will be taking all of the precautions necessary, as outlined in the guidelines, people over the age of 65 and people who have underlying health conditions – who are at risk for COVID-19 – should continue to watch the Mass on TV.
 
Be assured that you have been in my prayers daily and will continue to be as we adjust to a new way of celebrating Mass and interacting with each other.
 
God Bless,
Fr. Maurice
 

In the case of our discovering that someone at Mass tests positive for COVID-19, we want to be able to inform all of you so that, in consultation with your physician, you can take the appropriate steps. 

If you registered to come to Mass, we already have your contact information, and will reach out to you if we learn that someone who attended Mass here has tested positive.
 
If you did not register, and if you wish to be contacted, please call or email the rectory with the appropriate contact information so that you can receive notification.
 
Even if you do not choose to leave your name, please know that we will make any announcement of a positive test on our website as well, so please check the website on a regular basis.
 

Note that this information will not include the name of the person who tested positive, which will be kept confidential, but only the Mass which they attended and any other relevant non-personal information.
