Beginning on Wednesday, March 4th, and on every Wednesday of Lent, we will be offering confessions from 6:00pm - 7:00pm. Right after the 5:30pm Mass ends, the celebrant will expose the Blessed Sacrament for a Holy Hour
During that Holy Hour, two priests will make themselves available for confession.
Comenzando el miercoles 4 de marzo, y durante todos los miércoles de Cuaresma, ofreceremos confesiones de 6:00pm a 7:00pm. Justo después de que termine la misa de las 5:30 pm, el celebrante expondrá el Santísimo Sacramento para una Hora Santa.
Durante esa Hora Santa, dos sacerdotes estarán disponibles para la confesión.
Mark your calendars for the next Parish Faith Formation Evenings:
Adoration Hours will be Extending! Adores Needed...
As announced by Fr. Manny in his Pastor's column this weekend, our regular hours of Adoration at the St. Joseph Adoration Chapel, located in the Parish Office, will be expanding this coming Lent. Initially, hours will be extended until the office closes at 4:30pm, but our long-term plan is to extend regular hours of Adoration into the evening and eventually launch Perpetual Adoration.
As we prepare to soon extend Adoration hours, we are asking parishioners to sign up now as Adorers. This will ensure that the Blessed Sacrament is never left alone in the Chapel and will also allow us to plan for the eventual roll-out of evening hours.
At least one Adorer should be present at all times, though, of course, the Chapel is large enough to accommodate several Adorers at once. At this time, we are asking those who are able to commit to either half an hour or one full hour of Eucharistic Adoration to begin signing up for their desired dates/times.
A binder is now located in the Vestibule of the Church for those wishing to commit to a regularly recurring daily or weekly time slot (i.e., EVERY Monday, from 11am to 12 Noon).
We have also created an online sign-up which will allow you to quickly and easily select multiple dates and/or times. This is best for those who cannot commit to a regular time slot or for those whose schedule varies from week to week.
