One of the blessings that grew from the pandemic was the shared daily prayer. We rallied around the Lord and his Mother in prayer when we could not come together as a parish community. We prayed the Angelus and later Regina Coeli at noon, we prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet daily at the hour of mercy, and we prayed the Rosary in the evening. We meditated during Adorations, walked the Stations of the Cross. We celebrated Mass with the school every Wednesday and Sunday Masses every weekend. What a blessing it was to pray together. What a blessing it was to enter your home via livestream on Facebook and be with you during this difficult time, providing a sense of community, and mutual support. I am very grateful to each of you for your participation, prayers, care and support. It lifted me up, I hope it did the same for you. As we open our church for the liturgical celebrations, devotions and return to business, daily prayers of Angelus, Divine Mercy and Rosary will discontinue. Beginning on June 18 the Rosary will continue to be prayed temporally via Facebook once a week on Thursday evening at 8:30 pm. Everyone is invited to participate.
