  If you are going to daily Mass please consider staying for about 10 more minutes to help sanitize the pews. Lots of hands make the task go quickly. If you can stay please let me know. Thanks much!...

Dear Parish Family,

Christ's peace to you in this difficult time!

Please know that you are in my prayers throughout every day, and that I lift you up with the chalice in my daily Mass, praying for Our Lord to protect you from illness, anxiety, and above all from losing faith, hope, and love.

I am working to see what our schedule will be during these weeks of social distancing precautions.

DAILY MASS: By next week we will be offering Mass every day at 9am, to which you can spiritually unite yourself by praying along from wherever you are during that time.

The best resource I know of to be able to have access to the readings and prayers of each Mass, as well as beautiful reflections, is Magnificat:
https://us.magnificat.net/

SUNDAY MASS: Though we cannot be physically together, it will be live-streamed through Facebook Live, YouTube Live, and directly on the home page of the parish website in Spanish on Saturday at 6pm and in English on Sunday at 10am.

CONFESSIONS: I am trying my best to have a process by which I would not get anyone sick if I at some point picked up any illness. Up to this point, that has meant open air confessions only. I think the time has now come for what I hinted at in homilies past - DRIVE THRU CONFESSIONS!
- Saturday, I will be available from 4-5:30pm in the parking lot between the church and the gym.
- Mon-Fri, confessions will be heard in the same place from 5:30-6:00PM
ANOINTING OF THE SICK/VIATICUM: Please never hesitate to call me for this incredibly important sacrament!

I can always be reached at 505-302-5596 by phone call or text.

ADORATION: We are not presently doing Adoration due to the COVID-19 protocols concerning social distancing and gatherings of no more than five (5) people.

VISITS TO THE CHURCH: The church will be open each day from 8am to 6pm. Please keep a distance of at least a few pews between yourself and others while you are in the church.

TITHING: I pray that you not forget about your parish during this time of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.
- No, we are not able to gather together, but that does not mean that all of our normal practices of loving the Lord and committing to our faith - including supporting the church - should not continue wherever possible.
- The fact is, this period without collections has the potential to decimate us financially, since all of the money we have currently is already meant for various projects or earmarked for specific ministries.
- Please consider signing up for online giving (you can access it here), sending in your checks, or dropping off a donation at the parish office or into the safeboxes for the candle donations on the north and south side chapels of the church.
CLASSES and MEETINGS: These have been cancelled until further notice, but by next week I hope to have a plan in place for how we can still meet through zoom, google meet, or similar videoconferencing platforms. These meetings, should they happen, would be offered rather than required.

As always, know of my love for you and my prayers for you. Please don't hesitate to write or call if you need anything.

Querido parroquia,

¡Que la paz de Cristo esta con ustedes durante este tiempo difícil!

Saben que ustedes están en las oraciones mías durante cada día. También te levanto en oración durante la Misa cada día y estoy orando que nuestro Señor to protege de enfermedad, ansiedad y pérdida de fe, esperanza y amor.

Estoy trabajando para ver que puedo hacer con nuestro horario durante este tiempo de distanciamiento social.

Misa Diaria: La semana que viene, si Dios permite, vamos a tener Misa cada día a las 9AM donde puedes unirse espiritualmente rezando en cualquier lugar que estas en ese momento.

            Puedes visitar https://us.magnificat.net/ para las lecturas y oraciones para cada Misa.

Misa Dominical: Aunque no podemos ser juntos físicamente, vamos a tamizar en vivo mediante Facebook Live, YouTube Live y directamente en nuestro sitio web en la página de inicio sábado en español a las 6PM y en domingo en ingles a las 10AM.

Confesiones: Vamos a tener confesiones lunes a viernes, 5:30PM hasta 6PM y sábado, 4PM hasta 5:30PM entre la iglesia y el gimnasio.

Unción de los Enfermos/Viaticum: Si necesitas este Sacramento importante, por favor llámame a (505)302-5596 o por mensaje de texto.

Adoración del Santísimo: En este tiempo no podemos tener Adoración del Santísimo debido a los nuevos mandatos de distanciamiento social.

Horario de la Iglesia: Nuestra iglesia será abierto para rezar cada día 9AM hasta 6PM. Si hay otra gente en la iglesia, por favor mantengan distancia entre ustedes.

Clases y Reuniones: Clases y reuniones serán canceladas hasta nuevo aviso. Voy a ver si puedo planear una manera como tener clases y reuniones a través de medios en línea.

Como siempre, saben que estoy orando para ustedes y te quiero mucho. Por favor no lo dudes a llamar o escribir me si necesitas cualquier cosa. Que Dios te bendiga y te mantenga a salvo durante este tiempo difícil.
