OUTDOOR MASS & PICNIC MOVING INSIDE:

 

Due to weather forecasts that are rather unclear as to what will happen tomorrow, we are moving our outdoor 10:30AM Mass and picnic to the church (Mass) and cafeteria (picnic) tomorrow.

 

I wish we didn’t have to do it, but because of the sacredness of the Mass, and the equipment that needs to be set up for such a large liturgy, we can’t be outside in rain. The forecasts are not really clear as to what will happen tomorrow, but we can’t chance it. 

 

Please come anyway, as Jesus will still be with us as we worship Him on the 800th anniversary of St. Francis’ death, and we thank God for the gift of our parish. We’ll still have PLENTY of fried chicken, hot dogs and other food for our free picnic lunch in the cafeteria.

 

Sorry for the late notice, and thanks for understanding. I love this outdoor Mass, but we’ll still be together to worship our God and enjoy lunch together. Please join us tomorrow for our 10:30AM Mass in our church and picnic after!

 

God bless you,

Fr. Sahd
