This week — June 24, 2020:
- A Message from Fr. Alan Morris
- Parking Lot Mass
- Online Events
- Parish Life Updates
Father Alan Morris reflects on the readings from this past Sunday.
All Masses are being held in the church parking lots on the published Mass schedule except when thunderstorms threaten, in which case the public Mass will be cancelled. (The priest will still say the Mass, but out of public view). You can check for updates on the parish website.
If the weather cooperates, then after Mass the ministers will distribute Communion at specified stations in the parking lots.
To be able to hear the parking lot Mass from your car, you can use your phone to to listen via ZOOM. Instructions for listening can be found at our website using the button below.
Parking Lot Mass Locations:
- At Holy Trinity Church, Mass will be celebrated at the canopied sanctuary erected near the main entrance (on weekdays, Mass will be said at the rectory door). The Communion stations will be at the driveways leading to either exit from the property.
- At St. Malachy Church, Mass will be celebrated at the altar in the window. The Communion stations will be directly in front of the church, halfway under the roof canopy.
- At St. Mary, Help of Christians Church, Mass will be celebrated on the canopied back porch of the priests’ residence. The Communion stations will be in the driveway exit toward Church Avenue.
The 10 AM Live Stream Sunday Mass will continue for the time being those who are sick and vulnerable to COVID-19. If you wish to receive the weekly email with live stream Mass information, please join the Live Stream Mass email group HERE.
The parish is continuing to work with the guidelines set forth by the diocese in the reopening guide "Moving Forward Together". Information surrounding the opening of public Mass and what to expect can be found at diopitt.org/moving-forward-together.
