Due to the impending winter storm forecasted for this weekend (January 24–25), we are modifying our liturgical and sacramental schedule to ensure the safety of our parishioners and staff. Please read the following adjustments carefully:
Weekend Mass & Sacraments
To stay ahead of the inclement weather, all Sunday intentions will be honored during two Saturday Vigil Masses. NOTE we ADDED A MASS ON SATURDAY.

•    Reopening: We anticipate resuming our regular schedule with the 8:00 AM Mass on Tuesday, Jan 27.
Urgent Appeal: Rising Snow Removal Costs
We are facing a very serious financial challenge this winter. To date, snow removal and salting have already cost the parish a substantial $37,030. This is an extraordinary expense that directly impacts our operating budget.
Because this storm is forcing us to cancel our Sunday services, we are deeply concerned about the loss of the weekly collection at a time when our costs are spiking. We truly need our parishioners to help with the collections now more than ever. Please consider the following ways to help us cover this $37,030 deficit:
1.    Online Giving: Please use our website portal to make your weekly offering if you cannot attend Saturday.
2.    Double-Up: If you attend on Saturday, please consider a "second-mile" gift to help with the snow fund.
3.    Mail-In: You can drop your envelopes in the mail slot at the rectory once it is safe to travel.  Safety First: Please stay off the roads during the height of the storm. We look forward to praying with you via livestream at 5:00 PM Saturday or seeing you safely on Tuesday.
THANK YOU!    Fr. Peter
